Central Casting Put on No Hire list without informing me and can't give me a reason why? Burbank California
I signed up for Central Casting in March 2007 and worked on and off during the summer and fall of 2007 I worked as a Non Union extra on several TV series booked though calling Central Casting. Then of course the Writers strike happened. Now that the writers strike is over I started calling the Non Union Line from Central Casting and I found a Job that I would be perfect for. They were seeking Military Looking guys. Well I am a soldier in the Army National Guard and served in Iraq in 2003 to 2004. I have been enlisted for 7 years. I have a good work ethic and always on time if not early for call times. I have no idea what could have put me on their not Hire list. I called for the before mentioned casting call for Military Guys when I called in I was told I was not registered any longer. I know I paid for Two years registry fees and I thought I was still in good standings I never received a phone call or letter saying otherwise. I called and also went into the office no one was able to tell me what is going on other then that I am on the Do Not Hire list. It really upsets me deeply what they don't want to hire me cause I am a soldier thats the only thing I can think of. I will keep updating this complaint until they fix this issue.

I have several friends who have been put on this list for no reason as well. My sister was put on this list because she was late just one time. Central Casting in Burbank has no regard for people & treat them all like cattle. Shame on them for taking from people.

A week later, no returned calls from Central Casting about being placed on the their No Hire list. I have no idea what could have possibly put me on their no hire list. I have called and no return calls as of yet. No one seams to know why or can give me a reason.
