I met with the staff and they made LOTS of promises about jobs and working with clients of D.V.R…read more in reality they made a very small effort and put me on an evaluation with Olympia Goodwill without doing any research into the field or types of jobs I am suited for. I do not wish to work for Goodwill in any shape or form as they take advantage of their employees and do not pay for all the hours people work especially if they are disabled. Many employees of Goodwill have been working there for years without raises and are still minimum wage workers. I do not wish to work for Goodwill and I think it is wrong to take money from the Federal Government to channel it into a business that basically takes donations and claims to train its workforce when it does nothing like this. It is a total scam. When I expressed my concerns I was told I was not a "good fit." Basically ES has set employers and they have no intention of paying people livable wages or offer real training. They were paid $3000.00 and spent a total of about 1.5 hours with me. It is a total scam.

I was with Employment Solutions Plus for a good year and a half and let me tell you the positives…read moreand the Negatives about my experiences with them. The owner, Dawn Prentice, seems really nice as most do as putting on a "Mask" to get as much business as possible. Now I am sure she is truly has a heart because of business she is in, but I also know it brings her in good money. You see, after I signed the paperwork, after she started to see the green, she handed me off to the next person, Patrick Gallagher which was fine because that was the process. Week after week, we developed plans and ideas; updated resumes and cover letters; and went to job fairs. Nothing happened month and month and month. I was starting to get depressed, but kept on trying. Patrick Gallagher said to me that he placed every single person he had quickly. You know what Patrick; I think you either lied to me as you possibly did many times while we talking. Patrick Gallagher did not even get me an interview!!!! WTF!!! Sure I had certain rules....no fast food joints and no labor jobs because I am disabled. That is it, and no job interviews; NOT even information interviews. I continue to look and so did he (so I thought). Two or three months went by, and I didn't get a call, so I called up and left a message. The next day, I made an appointment with DVR for 2 weeks later for all of us to get together. Employment Solutions Plus dropped me because Patrick Gallagher sucks at getting people quality jobs; instead he gets them fast food jobs, labor jobs, or sales jobs (I forgot to mention I did not want a commission sales jobs either) Thank you Patrick Gallagher very much!!! Thank you Dawn Prentice very much. I would not recommend this company, Employment Solution Plus to anyone unless you want a fast food job or a sales job..... What a joke!!! Thank you Employment Solutions Plus for wasting my time!!!
