I am a seasoned Managerial Professional with 20 years of experience in the California Marketplace. I should have known to check the consumer complaints first. Big Mistake!
Allen Associates claims to help you get to the top people within the companies you are interested in targetting for employment is totally bogus. The company has a sales person contact you after you log on to Six Figure Jobs.com (what a great prospecting method for finding people who can potentially afford their scam). The sales person makes all kinds of claims about their targetting of companies, wonderful resume, cover letter and marketing documents they create for you.
The documents, resume etc. Are cookie-cutter and no better than what can be found on the web for free (I've had two top recruiters tell me this!) The coach that I chose... Their top female was extremely vague about what the follow up proceedure is once your mailing has been completed (I paid extra for several hundred to be sent).
When pressed, she essentially said, just say you are doing research on the company. When I questioned why in the world a busy high level executive would ever take this kind of call... She hemmed and hawed and gave no answer. That is their system of success for you. A second call with her was interupted twice while she took an unidentified call and the second one from her doctor. This is what I paid $1,500 dollars for?
When you call to express your dissatisfaction (now remember... They already have your money!) They keep telling you that you have to provide them with documentation (in their system) for the calls to busy executives asking them for their time while you research their company.
None of this process is disclosed to you before you give them your money!!! They are predators!!! I'm amazed no class action suit has been filed against them!
no not use this company!!!
