Comments:
I registered with ASA in January of 1998. I scored in the high 80's low 90's on all of the tests. They did not call me back. I delt with Arnie- who could not even remember my name even though I sat at his desk for a little over an hour. He promised to find me the best DTP jobs in the city but never called. I originally had an appointment with Ilyssa who was not there the day of my appointment. Nor did she even bother to let me know. I waited in the lobby for two hours before I met with Arnie. I arrived during lunch time (which was when my appointment was scheduled) and was treated very badly by the receptionist who obviously lacked people skills. It left a bad impression on me. Even if ASA DID call me I would never take an assignment from then and anyone that I come across I STRONGLY advise them to go to another agency because ASA is not worth the time.
