The Social Health Authority (SHA) has flagged a notice purporting to advertise several job vacancies in 28 positions as fake.

In a social media post on Saturday night, SHA flagged the viral notice that sought to hire individuals from all levels of qualifications, from interns to human resource officers.

The fake notice had all the hallmarks of a legitimate job advertisement from the authority, complete with its format, wording, logo and even colours. "Social Health Authority (SHA) is currently the health provider in Kenya, established under section 25 of the Act of the Kenyan constitution and designed to provide all healthcare services in all Kenyan healthcare facilities," part of the fake notice read.
