A friend who is a hiring manager, told her neighbor who’d approached her, tell your son to send his resume in through the regular channels and I’ll take a look at it along with the rest.

We called the 3 universities, none had received job listings for her company. Smells of corrupt HR, “for a fee, I’ll pass on your resume” marketeering.
