Yes it is a scam...What they actually do is try to get you to give up your Full Name and banking information and once they get that information they will electronically deduct money out of your account without your approval and before you know it you will be broke because they took all of your money out of your account.

Unless you spoke to the company yourself and requested information, or maybe had an online resume, i would say its a scam, or more like advertisment.
