Please dont get scammed.
1) Any company who asks to pay is a SCAM
2) There should have been a proper Interview process through Phone/Video call.
3) Their email address should have been @<companyname> not their personal address.
Anyone can create a gmail address and do all these for money.
They seek people, knowing they are desperate and vulnerable. No one hires people outside canada. Inside canada itself there is a huge shortage of opportunities, but no shortage of labour.
So you may get many such mails, more scammers are prevalent now. BEWARE!

I received the same but the email is not. Gmail, it like original but it still doesn't add up as the person they claiming to be can not be found online plus email has no company logo, lots of spelling mistakes
employment@sheratonhotelquebec.cc. I've never had an email only interview so that just raises more flags.
Can anyone tell me if that email is legit?

It is fake. Many people agree getting mails from big hotels claiming to hire for housekeeping, receptionist roles.
Ignore....

Well? Are you a sommelier? Do you even know what that is? Did you apply for the job? If you answer 1 of these questions with no, it's a fake

The .cc domain should be your dead giveaway, its not a Canadian country level domain.

That domain is registered in Iceland, and is a country TLD for Cocos Island (territory of Australia), so go figure.
