Why do I need to pay for recruitment!

Paul1 Reply

Being recruited doesn’t mean you need to pay!

I recently got an email from a recruiter. Here is what they email me:

I was forwarded your resume from my VP, and based upon your background we would like to extend you an offer to interview with us. We’ve recently expanded our National Healthcare Division and need individuals capable of working Full-Time and/or Part-Time for Marketing, Recruitment, and Business Development. Experience not required, although HR, Marketing, Sales, Recruitment, and Customer Service is a plus.

Thank you,

After the initial email, I was really skeptical about this being a legitimate or not because of how vague this was. So I figured it wouldn’t hurt to do this Webinar and find out more information about this supposedly job. I listened and and everything seem just to good to be true.

If it sounds to good to be true then probably it isn’t!

This is one of those well known phrases that you have heard about in the past. It basically means that this one is supposedly job and they would say we were "Executive Recruiters Representatives" and after doing my research this isn’t something that you should even consider paying for. After doing some more research this company has very little information on the Better Business Bureau, which means this is a new site and they did try to tell me they have been doing this for quite some time.

Some more links to look at to find out more about this possible scam is:

After reading all these I have to agree everything that I thought is TRUE. They want to get like 199$ from you to train you but yet they are getting people to pay them this stupid fee. I could easily do this without there help. If you do your job and search about this company you will find out a lot about how they will try to make you pay for something that should be free and these jobs probably don’t pay you anything that can possibility be real. This company is dodgy and I wouldn’t give them any money and so should you!!

Keep it safe

  1. Your comments are spot-on, Paul. I’m a recruiter by profession and have been for 15 years. I got their e-mail myself yesterday and it didn’t smell right from the outset. One look at their website from an experienced eye shows it to be a generic hodge-podge of information about the hospital and nursing industry in general, almost a cut-and-paste job into some templates, but almost zero information about the firm itself. On the site they claim to have a lengthy history in the field, but provide zero evidence of it; no client or candidate testimonials, no case studies, no listing of major clients — nothing. You can’t find any mention of who actually runs the company, either; not on the web site, not on Linked In, not anywhere. Finally, nowhere on the site do they post any current job openings. A bit odd for a recruiting firm, don’t you think.

    What money they’re making is probably from selling their “training”.
