I answered an ad on craigslist for Security positions. I was advised they had a lot of positions available and I was looking for something part time. So I went into the City for an interview.
It was brought to my attention that I needed to give them $80 for an application fee. Then I had to give them $180 more for training classes and the promise of a job.
Once I passed my test, I was asked to come back to the office a week later. When I went there, I showed my license and was asked to come back next week. The next week came and I went all the way into the city again. They asked to see my license and said come back next week same time.
I said "wait a minute, it's $30 train fare everytime I come into the city, what is the next step?" So they said you know what, take this address and get there before 2pm. So I went to the address they gave me and when I got there at noon, the woman there said she only sees people Monday through Thursday. Not Fridays.
So I went there for nothing. I called the guy from the agency and explained what happened and he said he would call me back. I never heard from him again.
Please be careful, do not pay for a job, they should be paying you. Do not pay "cash" for anything. If you can't use your card or check, don't move forward with it.
This company is a scam. You are paying this company to find you a job that never is, instead of companies paying these guys to find employees for them.
Waste of time and money!!!
