The Staffing Agencies
Complaint 208439 Details

In the past four months, I have been doing a self research on staffing agencies. 10 out 11 are infitrated by colleges and universities who are blocking their online employment application links. When potential applicant click on the application links, these colleges and universities lure the applicant to their website and forcibly urged the applicants to register with their institutions, promising them student loans availability. Though the applicant might say they have a degree and were not interested in continueing education, the agencies still persist in a rather unusual manner to convince the applicants to apply to their schools. If you refuse, you will not be able to continue the online application. The first thing they do is get your phone number and call you immediately not about the job you have applied for or was trying to apply for. They main goal is to get you to commit to attending their school. This has been very frustrating for people trying to find work!!

In my case, since I am fully aware of their luring techniques, once I see "are you interestd in furthering your education?" I just close the link and leave. But then, because they already have your phone number and email, they will begin to harass you contineously. They will key in your phone number into their computers which calls you every hour!! And if you answer your phone and ask them to remove your number, they will tell you it will take 24 hours for your number to be removed. But what they really end up doing is selling your phone number to another colleges or universities to continue to harrass you some more!. The most annyingg agencies are Monster.com, Career Builder.com, Gigst, USA jobs.com, and many others. The fact also remains that reputable companies like Lowe's and Home Depot are also infiltrated. Their websites are criminally infiltrated and potential job seekers cannot go online to complete application. Lst week, I was forced to go to Home Depot on Cascade Road in East Point to place my online application. This is redicurous!! Please do something about this!!
