After completing my profile on iHireNutrition.com, and checking only the box for hospital experience and selecting only the title: Nutrition Coordinator, I recieved an email from iHireNutrition titled: Recent Opportunities for Helen. The first link listed was: Nutritionist in Houston. I clicked on it and went to a page which gave me the option of paying $5.00 to see the details of the job or signing up for a 7 day free trial of the full membership. I charged the five dollars to my credit card and went to the full detail page: a Yahoo! Hot Jobs ID 23301185:
Nutritionist, develop, implement dietary-care, coordinate recipe for Thai food, food QC, policy for food service and nutritional program. BS in Food Science, 2 yrs. Exp., Thai Cottage II, Houston, TX, cv: suethaicottage@ yahoo.com.
Any one can see this ad for free at Yahoo! Hot Jobs. With hospital experience and public heath clinic nutrition coordinator experience, I am surprized iHireNutrition matched me up with an ethnic food service job at the Thai Cottage II. If the link had said: Nutritionist with Thai Food Specialty, I would not have clicked on it. So, I called the customer service number, 260-624-2442 and asked for my $5 to be refunded under the money back, satisfaction guarantee. I was told that the guarantee was only for employers and that they never refund money for any reason to job seekers.
Moral of the story: Go directly to Yahoo! Hot Jobs or AOL jobs. Skip the iHire's of the virtual world.
