The Star Online social media manager Michelle Tam.

PETALING JAYA: Star Media Group Bhd, which publishes The Star daily newspaper and The Star Online portal, would like to emphasise that it does not use freelancers for its social media channels or campaigns.

It has come to the company's attention that some job applicants are misleading potential employers by claiming to be freelancers, especially for The Star Online's Facebook page.
