Comments:
This agency is all about rush rush rush. Then, never call back if you
don't fit something they have at the moment. And they are liars. When
I first walked in, I met with the President and she sugar coated
everything and made me feel like I was one of their best candidates
(which believe me I was/am). She was great with returning my phone
calls before the interview trying to schedule something as soon as
possible and making me rush around. After the interview, I called
right away, because I was told to and OF COURSE the receptionist said
that recruiter was on lunch after keeping me on hold for just enough
time to lie about it (don't assume people are stupid enough to believe
that) then that recruiter never calls me back, but the president calls
to leave me a message saying "I did a fine job, but they are going
with another candidate and that she will call me with other openings"
NEVER CALLS BACK. I have followed up with these "ladies" three or four
times...NOTHING. They in my opinion are money hungry, unprofessional
and really bad liars.
