Based on the criteria they self-reported, among other companies that self reported, it appears.
I never heard of them, which doesn't mean much since that isn't a field I'm involved in.

Something tells me this company is not legit. First of all, "one of the most respected companies in the world" throws it off right there.

They list their address as 234 Simpson Road in Atlanta. Simpson Road no longer exists. It is now Joseph E. Boone, and has been for at last five years.

Next, they show images on their website of their headquarters at 234 Simpson Rd. This is one of the images:
. Note the 721 above the door.

Now, compare that to this building, which is in Durham, NC at 721 Broad Street.

The first piece of news from their website, which has a Ukraine top domain? "The numbers don't lie and neither do the stats Georgia is the NEW hollywood our state with its low tax credit has attracted hollywood movie companies to make films in the peach state. And as you know Zone X Production is one of the companies also producing movies with many directors like Tyler Perry residing in Atlanta.Business deals are now in reach of our local attention." So, the most respected company in the world can't manage to post a coherent sentence in their news releases?

If you got a job here, where did they tell you to show up?

It's quite amazing how much effort went into the website, even if every photo on it is taken from somewhere and the text is garbage.

Yeah, I do a lot of this for a living now -- remaking bad websites, plus my news background trained me to spot. fake websites years ago. The web address is usually a dead giveaway but even if it's hidden behind a fake address, just clicking around on a couple of logos or buttons and getting error messages or dead links is all you need to know. It's shocking that some people remain so gullible in this day and age.

(BTW ... I'm suspicious of the OP as well. Strikes me as a click bait plant.)
