Soaking in everything SoCal has to offer.

It's true we're located on the edge of a desolate landscape. Scaled was established on the outskirts of civilization so we could have privacy to test our vehicles, the rent was cost-effective, and when you don't have distractions you can stay focused. Not to mention the weather is amenable to year-round testing, a big selling point when your core business involves flight test! The perks of this location is we're centrally located to a variety of activities, perfect for taking advantage of those long-weekends offered by our 9/80 work schedule.

What is recruitment fraud?

Recruitment fraud is an illegal scam that exploits job seekers into providing personal information or money for fraudulent ‘job opportunities’ on recruitment websites. This kind of fraud is usually done through unsolicited emails and text messages, or through fake websites and social media accounts posing as a company. Those engaging in this illegal activity may request personal or sensitive information with the intent of gaining access to your bank information, credit card number or social security number.

Some examples may include, but are not limited to, asking you to make financial payments for travel expenses or “new hire” computer equipment.
