Donald Sabin & Associates, DSA
Pushes clients into expensive contracts requiring up front money and doesn't follow through on verbal commitments, gives you nothing in return RIPOFF

Donald Sabin & Associates will rush you into an expensive contract with all sorts of promises. The contract will require substantial payments upfront. They will verbally promise and discuss anything to get you to sign the contract quickly. They will also tell you how important timing is in order to get you to sign quickly.

I expressly discussed several times that I had been working with other recruiters and asked how things would be handled if one of them came through. I was told that if this was the case, we would come up with a mutually acceptable solution.

I had proceeded through their process, only through Phase 1 (or about 10-20% of the process), which consisted of me quickly filling in a questionaire which took approximately 20 minutes. Within a few weeks I had been offered and accepted another position obtained through another recruiter.

I discussed this with Donald and received a letter stating that due the research already completed the costs would be approximately 50% of the total costs. I requested the results of the research and never received anything. I then filed a complaint through my credit card company at which time I received a credit of about one-third of the amount paid.

I later requested the results, once again, and was told that "any information resulting from these efforts became null and void and totally unusable once the agreement is cancelled. We do not keep outdated or used specific data pertaining to a non-client." But yet they kept the results of the questionaire I filled in during my 20 minute session.

The bottom line is Donald Sabin & Associates has kept two-thirds of my payment for which I received absolutely nothing.

Not only that, even the results of the questionaire I filled in were in accurate since I was rushed through the questionaire and was told that I could adjust my answers when I had more time to think about it and review the results. I later sent updated responses which don't appear were ever even considered.

Donald Sabin is a pushy salesman posing as extremely warm and considerate, but the bottom line is he's a salesman.
