Complaint Review: CareerNetwork

CareerNetwork SoftRock, Defrawi The CareerNetwork/SoftRock/Defrawi spam/scam exposed Orlando, Florida

If you are looking for a job, like I am, beware of that nicely-designed web page that CareerNetwork boasts, at career-network.com!  This is nothing but an offensive spam/scam operation.

At career-network.com, you will see big names advertised--like Mercedes-Benz, Century 21, Jiffy Lube, The Ritz-Carlton Hotels, Holiday Inn, IHOP and several more.  I looked up how many jobs these companies are offering through CareerNetwork... and the number is -0-.  (Exhibit 1).

So what jobs does CareerNetwork offer?  According to their web page, they have 43,342 jobs available. Worth checking, right?  Wrong: of the "43,342 jobs" CareerNetwork claims to have, 3,768 are from Volt Technical Resources -- 3,768 BOGUS jobs from that company, that is!.  Visit jobs.volt.com and see what Volt's REAL job offerings look like!  (Exhibit 2).

Tip to the CareerNetwork/SoftRock/Defrawi copywriters: go ahead and add a few hundred "jobs" from the ACME company; Wile E Coyote will be proud of you!!

Another jewel: check out a few of the CareerNetwork/SoftRock/Defrawi's "partner sites": they are all BOGUS!!  (Exhibit 3).

I said compare CareerNetwork/SoftRock/Defrawi's "Volt" jobs with the REAL Volt jobs at jobs.volt.com; you will see the difference between the BOGUS postings and the REAL ones.

I did. I also offered an explanation for the discrepancy.  Obviously, my explanation feel on deaf ears, so I'll repeat myself.

Career Network is an employment agency.  Companies who are looking for people to hire, can submit those jobs to Career Network.  If the company does not inform Career Network when the job is filled and the position is no longer available, Career Network will leave it up as an available job.

It is way too obvious that work for Defrawi !!

If you look around on this site, it is way too obvious just how stupid that comment really is.  I, personally, have been accused of working for 20 different companies over the past few months.  Just ask Josey, he knows.  He spends all of his time trolling around on this site looking for the fictional "Team Rebutt", of which I am apparently a card carrying member.

Also read the last part of my first post, I even agreed with you that the links not working points toward possible scam.  BTW, I never did receive any response to the email I sent them.

Wow!! Even when I agree with the OP that it may be a scam, you still feel the need to post your worthless garbage.  Did you even read my post?

claims to have, 3,768 are from Volt Technical Resources -- 3,768 BOGUS jobs from that company, that is!

Career Network is just an employment agency set up to help you find a job.  Just like all other employment agencies, the companies, like Volt, who are looking for employees to hire, send the information to Career Network.  If Volt does not let Career Network's agents know when the positions are filled, as far as Career Network knows, the positions are still available.  This is just a possible explanation for the discrepancy.

At career-network.com, you will see big names advertised--like Mercedes-Benz, Century 21, Jiffy Lube, The Ritz-Carlton Hotels, Holiday Inn, IHOP and several more.

These companies may have posted jobs with Career Network at one point.  Then, when the positions were filled, they contacted Career Network and the jobs were taken down.  Again, this is just a possible explanation for the discrepancy.

Another jewel: check out a few of the CareerNetwork/SoftRock/Defrawi's "partner sites": they are all BOGUS!!

This is the only part of your report that makes me think "scam".  I have sent the following email to Career Network:

"I was looking at your partner sites you have listed.  None of them seem to work.

http://www.career-network.com/sites.cfm

I have gone to several different states and used several different computers with different internet connections.  None of them work.  I receive an error stating "Oops! Google Chrome could not find www.career-network-bloomingtonin.com"."

I will let you know if I ever receive a response.  Their site says "up to 3 business days."  But I have yet to receive any auto acknowledgement from them, so we'll see.

I hope you have not given them any personal information as of yet, correct?
