Robert Half
Same things happen in Dallas. Here's why

For the last 7-8 years I get a call from a new rep from Robert Half downtown Dallas. Since I was close by, I didn't mind going over for an "interview". They always say the same thing: the job was either filled or withdrawn. You'll get a call from a different rep every 3-4 months. That's how long they work at Robert Half without receiving any commissions. With that said, I have a gal that used to work for them and is now a bartender. They call you in, strap you to a chair an interrogate you about references, companies you worked for, etc. They are fishing for new leads to cold-call.in most cases, RH doesn't even have a formal relationship with these companies. The reps simply scan direct-hiring companies' websites for openings and flood them with an array of resumes trying to get a "bite". This rarely happens. I've been in this industry for nearly 30 years and have many contacts. Not once have I heard a hiring manager bringing in a candidate from RH, nor has any of my colleagues ever landed a job through RH. When they call these days, I tell the rep he'll be out in 90 days and if he wants me to come by, I'll ask him how much is he going to pay me, because I'm scary expensive. Btw: Don't ever give out your former boss' number or a coworker's number to RH. They will hound them to the ends of the earth trying to drum up new business.
