It's a SCAM
A recruiter named Bianca called me and left a message, and emailed me saying she had a perfect fit for me. I called her back for details, and she said she found my resume online (not remembering where exactly) and had an open position, just the perfect fit for my skills and background in West Palm Beach, paying exactly where I want to be. She asked me how I felt about commuting to West Palm and I told her it was OK with me. Bianca insisted on meeting with me and we scheduled it in two days.
The next day I got a VM from another person from her office saying she needed to talk to me about that open position. I called the office at 4pm and that person wasn't there, so I asked to speak with Bianca. She said that was her manager Alexis who called me, and she really wanted to speak with me because my resume stood out as the perfect candidate. At that point, something started to look suspicious, and I asked Bianca if there was such a position at all. She assured me the position was real and confirmed our appointment the next day.
When I met with her she couldn't get it straight at all. She started saying the position would pay less than they initially promised to, so it will not satisfy my expectations. But that was OK, according to Bianca, because I had to commute (which we already discussed over the phone and I told her it wasn't a big deal for me to drive to West Palm) and she offered me another position in Sunrise. That position was paying the minimum I was looking for, and involved making templates in Excel!! She asked me about my willingness to commute and when I told her it's up to where exactly in Sunrise the company was located, she did not know and just gave me some zip code!!! I wanted to know what else the position would be responsible for. Making templates was too vague and I did not want to commit to something I wasn't feel comfortable doing, but Bianca did not know anything else because as she said they had just posted the opening and did not have a job description. (HMMM SOME company, SOMEWHERE in Sunrise, SOME job duties). She assured me how perfect this position was for me, and her manager Rob (I was under the impression Alexis was her manager) would contact me in regards to the opening. I agreed to interview for the position and asked her also to set up an interview with that "Fortune 500" company in West Palm, but Bianca said it was pointless because they were considering another candidate...Yes, she COULDN'T get the story straight.
I left their office at 5pm and later that night sent her a recommendation she insisted me on submitting.
At 7:30am on the next day she emailed me back she would keep me "in her books" (WHATEVER that means) as the company was interviewing other candidates that week. REALLY?!?! They just posted the position the day before so you did not have much info at 5pm yesterday, but at 7:30am today you already know they booked out their schedule with interviews!!! STUPID LIER.
Later on I read online that these people from Insight Global are required to bring in at least 5 people on a weekly basis, and after meeting that dumb recruiter, I believe it's true. They don't have openings, and they have no employers to work with. They lie to you there is a position just to get you in the office and make their numbers. read more
