There's a business purporting to be in Plaistow, NH called Hospital Recruiting Partners, which is recruiting people daily, at $200 per head to join it's staff as hospital recruiters. I joined them, from using a $200 credit card payment, nearly a month ago, on 19 Aug and found out it's a rip-off.
ON that day, I attended a webinar where they explained their training program, which consisits of rudimentary web videos, and paid them a credit card payment$200 for their "training manual, " which was never mailed to me as promised. Then, I found it on their website and downloaded it, read it.
Then, I spent the last month calling hospitals to recruit on two of several "hot jobs" listed on HRP's website—director-level nursing jobs in a hospital listed in Denver, CO, and one in San Antonio, TX— that don't exist, as I found out today after calling the HR departments at the two particular hospitals themselves.in the meantime, I garnered several resumes and e-mailed them to HRP. None of these candidates have been placed for any jobs yet, as of yesterday.
Here are some more facts:
1. HRP uses a PO Box as an address and a very generic web site. Another address has them at 166 Plaistow Rd., Plaistow, NH.
2. There are countless internet blog entries about it being a scam; if you Google "HRP Staffing Scam, " they will be shown.
A. Some of these entries refer to 130 or more people attending the initial recruitment Webinars in which they webinar speaker shows a clock that is ticking giving you only so much time to sign up for rapidly vanishing recruiter slots... Which can be bought with a credit card... Multiply $200 per head by 130 head... And that's a chunk of change... From people all over the US... Daily!!!
3. They have 3 NH BBB entries against them... Each to which they failed to respond to
4. They had a recruiter in house named Jason Mitisonthat I was dealing with to interview my candidates disappear. For 4 days last week... During a time when I thought the candidates I had were being presented to the hospitals, leaving me wondering what was going on. It prompted me to Google HRP Staffing and find out all of the rip-off comments you will see, as did I.
In summation, in tight economic times, the company is preying on the unemployed in a bold fashion. Kinda wild to find out you're scammed after watching a webinar. That's how bold these guys are; they're not even afraid to show their faces.
There's even a video of the webinar on You Tube. Again, Google HRP Staffing scam... And you'll get a lot of info.
