I, too, was duped by BHA. During the sales process, although the salesman said he "couldn't guarantee me a job, " his sales process introduced the company as something entirely different than what they really were.
He told me that my career marketing agent would be able to get me in front of decision-makers with jobs.
He told me that they had this vast untapped network of jobs that I would have access to if I paid out my $5,000.
He told me this was a "discount, " that the services at my level of compensation should have cost about $1,000 more, but he was confident that he'd be able to find me a job within three to four weeks.
He even wrote a clause into my contract stating that, if I accepted employment outside of BHA's services, I could receive a "full refund, less services rendered (he was always very vague about just how much "services rendered" would be)."
It was only after I signed the contract that they would disclose to me exactly how they would get me in front of these decision-makers, and even then it was only after several meetings learning about my personality type and exploring career opportunities which, surprise surprise, told me absolutely nothing I didn't already know. So then they taught me exactly what Monster.com teaches for free: network. Make a list of everyone you know and have a "chat" with them and all their friends until someone likes you enough to give you a job.
And about this "vast network of jobs?" It doesn't exist.
I would certainly be interested in joining a class action suit.
Regards,
Scott
