Guest's review of Outsource Plus Recruitment

“Got taken for a mug”

★☆☆☆☆

written by on 16/08/2013

I got taken in by these people. The emailed me about a job interview with a well known company. Admittedly, I had not applied for this job but sometimes agencies to weird/ethical things and when you are desperate for work you can let your guard down.

I did research the "interviewer" as part of my preparation and it did all seem OK.

I emailed Outsource back with a couple of questions. It was from a Live.com address which was a bit odd but they did not reply.

Anyway, I went to the interview at the address. The company was there but they did not know about the job or about Outsource. I did not lose any money (apart from my train fare which I could not afford to waste being out of work) but even worse I was made to look and feel stupid. Luckily I had the email from Outsource about the so-called and interview and they made a copy to get in touch with Outsource.

Will be more wary in future.

I have heard this same situation about this recruiting co. many times, i.e. they arrange interviews with a company that has no idea you are coming. WTH? What is the deal with doing something like that? It just makes them look very stupid to all parties involved!
