Wow, after reading 3 or 4 others' experiences I am 100% sure I am going to cancel my upcoming SATURDAY MORNING interview. I've been out of work 16 months I don't need to go to WFG and pay for a background check, , , are they crazy? I got the same line about then having found my resume on careerbuilder what a load of crap. And to think I was going to go up there and be stuck there til noon at least when I have to set up the house and patio for a 1 PM memorial service for my friend's dad who was my landlord. He lived to be 86 by AVOIDING BS'ers like WFG. I am eternally thankful that I can research a company before investing my time and effort thinking they have a real JOB for someone like me who has worked since 1973 until being laid off at end of May 2012. Beware this company !
I have read 4 reviews now, all say the same thing: WFG makes you pay for your own background check as well as many other fees heretofore NEVER having been borne by the potential employee. I have saved myself a lot of frustration (and embarrassment) by researching this company prior to my upcoming Saturday morning interview..And NO I will not call to cancel...I will be a no-show, if only I could get hold of the others who plan to show up to interivew under a slick ruse of a real job being available. Arghh !
I have read 6 reviews now, enough to know NOT to waste my time going to "interview" on Saturday morning in Brea.My call came from a MATT, whom I had to ask to spell his name as even that was undecipherable from this marble mouthed marketer slash appointment setter. arghh ! RUN SCREAMING FOR THE PARKING LOT !
