Get Your Contractor

Job placement scam

Anyone have any success with this staffing agency dealing mainly with labor intensive jobs? I have yet to go through their online application process, which is eerily similar to the jobs.com site. They do not list the actual companies looking and their questionnaire seems more like marketing research than employmenty data.

I did have success with Get Your Contractor. In fact, I'm looking forward to using them again when the temporary job I got with them ends in a month. Their jobs aren't bogus at all- I'm getting paid every day and received interest right away when I signed up. And by the way, company confidential is how recruiting agencies do it. It's very standard, at least in my experience.

I just got an email from them too concerning a fork lift job. Are they legit? The $15.83 START pay they referenced, will they get a certain % OF that amount OR will the ACTUAL $15bucks stay the same upon hiring?

As someone who has worked in recruiting and staffing for years I have no issues with not telling you who the company is in the ad since you wont actually be working for them but for me as a contractor. If they state the pay is $15hr then that is what you should get before taxes, if not then you should run. My issue with this company is that they have way too many ads but no website or company info anywhere and that smells to me.

Being from a fortune 500 staffing company I would want everyone to know about me and go to my site.

They are all bs fronts. They do not have jobs, they do not intend to hire you.
They are there to collect data and sell it due to your mis-fortune of being job less.
Whats worse, the are on the KY goverment websites places for hiring, lol these ppl get on my nerves as well as seeing ALL these ads for "National Guard, US ARMY" WTF... GD. I am to F**king old to do that. I need to find another career since my last company i was with for 5 years went in the sh**er, without ALl the BS ads. Check out yahoo... LOL another joke. DOnt give these ppl anything, you'll be trying to figure out why you have a lamborgini in Cypress that you didn't pay for?

These people are as bogus as a three dollar bill. They have NO jobs that I know of. I have reported them to every agency I can think of. They only collect information for marketing scams such as education/schooling. When I first filled out their questionaire a telemarketer called me right away trying to sell me expensive schooling.

I emailed "Monica" and flat told her I was on to their scam and for her to prove to me there were assembler jobs, and warehouse jobs in Reno NV paying 16.00 bucks an hour, sometimes they advertised for 40 workers! No way. Its the same lying ads over and over again.

She even called me on the phone trying to "pacify'" me with lies. I recommend everyone who belives as I do to write the Federal Trade Commision and file a complaint. lets put these liars and frauds out of business and behind bars where they belong.
