American Recruiting Association A.R.A. Potential SCAM - blocks chat messages Boca Raton, Florida
As some of the other reports indicate, this company schedules a time to listen to introductory promo and about the recruiting and staffing industry... and their company's approach toward that industry.
They present for approx. 30 minutes various slides... ask a few questions... loaded questions, which ANYONE interested in the potential position would respond to in a positive light... then lead to the final punch when they ask for money. Along the way, they provide an opportunity to supposedly "chat" with company personnel. The problem is, the chat is only partially presented... perhaps all fake. Who knows? The only thing that I know for sure is that NONE of my comments made onto the chat board. As someone reported earlier, they edit the chat. That, in itself is deceptive.
I cannot yet comment on the fees or the legitimacy of the company relative to others in the industry. But it is for sure, that they do NOT want all comments read by other participants.
BUYER BEWARE as usual. Be careful before you lay out $387 for something, which has questionable ethics at best.
