Barton Industries Ripoff Called me pretending that I had submitted a resume to them deceptive practices Florida
Called and pretended to be responding to a resume that I had supposedly submitted to their company as if I was applying to a position with them. When I challenged his claim that I had contacted their company, he abruptly ended the call and hung up on me.
Why would I want to pay thousands of dollars to them for a service given to me free by my former company? Why prey on folks who are already strapped for cash wondering if the severance money will last?

Number:1 Mike, (and yes there is a Mike Stevens), said "he is in receipt of you resume". Not that he has "a job for you". Number 2: Yes, your resumes go "straight to the Decision Makers". We have plenty of testimonials, if you really care enough about your job search to ask. And Number 3: Your so called "free" help supplied to you by your previous employer, gets paid until you find a job! How fast do you think he wants to find you one? We are in business to help you find a job also. But unfortunately, the type of service we offer, sure can't be done for free! It is not a service for everybody. And just because you could not afford it, does not mean it is not worth every penny!! Some people out there have no clue how or where to begin a job search, and some people, who are still working, don't have the time to do the search themselves. These are the people who appreciate the help, no matter what the cost. At least we're legit, and not out socking people for $15,000-$25,000. Then have to turn around and do the work themselves. Nor do we make them sign contracts for 2-5 years. I think $2.30/resume sent, is pretty cheap, considering the paper, envelopes, ink, research and manhours put into a search for a client! But, then that's my opinion.
