Ask HN: Hiring scam?

A friend of mine was hired on as a graphic designer for a company in San francisco, last friday, after 4 months of employment - she was told that Friday was the last day of her 4-month evaluation period - that the company will hire someone else into the 4-month evaluation now and then let her know if she was selected.

This was a total shock to her, and they had never mentioned anything about this prior.

This sounds highly suspect to me - that they are using people for 4-months at a time then dropping them prior to giving them any benefits.

What do you think? And what do you suggest she do?
