and some just shouldnt be allowed to work this is a true story

someone i know went for a good job with a good salary in FMCG
they got on really well with the interviewer and thought great in with
a good chance, to be told no you didnt get the job by the agent
so not being shy she phoned the company up for feedback on why she
never got the job, and when they spoke the company had been told
she DID NOT want the job and vice versus

xxxx -sydney
please be aware and dont waste to much time with them
How true, we went to a recruitment agents who asked us to register for a government number to ensure that she got 150 dollars for setting up an interview. We soon found out the job had been advertised for two years and the firm had been closed for three years!!!!
How frustrating!
