mckenzie & kennedy (XLN) WASTE OF TIME, SCAM, ALL BIG CON BY ONE AMERICAN HUY TALK THE TALK, WALK THE TALK, A PLAYER MANCHESTER, Nationwide
Well, where do i start i came to find this job vacancy online with a friend made an over the phone application as such and was asked to pop down to familar manchester, dale house to see if i could end the misery at the time being un-employed. As i sat in the waiting room i started to become aware that maybe this was a recruitment centre as there was no visible staff of such i.e secretarys, Lets just say something wasnt right from the beginning. I became a little nervous when realised there was a huge demand for the one position i was under the influence was avaiable however this soon changed as when we meaning 12 of us went into another room for a group interview i then started to think erm....maybe i could just win this round here with expeirence not being funny but its a dog eat dog world! money is money and not allowing feelings take over.SIMPLE!. after a long overdue chat about tim craigs history in america then finally had lunch i looked around at the other job applicants all engaged in the topics of general conversation they have just been listening to; all commenting on the money seems good the commission structure is unusual, surely then we should of finished our fags and went seperate ways home but no! we decided to go back in and and try all suceed in the impossible job process. i dont really need to explain in pages the problem here however what i can say is what others have written on rip off reports is a factual account of what happens there; and if anyone had tryed to call them the number no longer exists and as i was shopping in manchester the other day was pleasantly surprised to see the building was now re-rented to a designer boutique of some sort. WHAT EVER YOU DO. DONT CALL THEM, DONT APPLY . This a interview process to allow you failure but make money for the company at the same time and by calculation from commision we were to have earned per sale each 12 applicants who stay more than 5 days which didnt happen due to human nature telling us f*k this we would of earned 1500 to the boss between us!.
In time they will be brought to justice, but its not what you know! its what you can prove and certainly this would be hard to place before the trading standards as the company is not vat registered or on any business listings throughout the uk and northern ireland only on marketing websites and time to time on job searching agents...but never found in the job centre! surprisingly!. i was the fool who left a perfect decent job to go there and lose it with 600 maxed up on my overdraft, but i have to say somethings happen for a reason as now have a good honest job good money and i know i will never be treated in the way that place did. btw yes my surname is mckenzie which made on several times make tim craig laugh maybe thats why i got the job representing a company called mckenzie and kennedy and my surname was only mckenzie lol... i dont know and never will

I went after graduation, thankfully have good job now... To start, the pratt on the reception, whom basically embarresed fully grown adults into talking to each other whilst the reception filled with over 30 people for this ONE interview... Then, the sift through your C.V and find out whilst your talked too by the yank whos so FULL of it, its untrue, for over 4 hours (never get that back).
The system was a sham, 9 people walked out, if you tried to ask a question, he would dismiss or shout at you, especially on, who he was, the copmany, and the wage... Its all true, you are used for 5 weeks, you have to achieve 99% in the academy exam to be paid.. I did stay, on the week after graduation manchester was on its behind, no jobs, but you do silly things!!!!
i never came back... the names he calls out in order at the end, if your name is 1st, he gives you a time to call back, you havent got the job, or you have!! At the end i decided not to do it, i knew what he was doing, was a scandal. What was sad was people in there 40's, with families, redundancies, were sat next to me, i was 23, it was awful. There all fake names, and yes a few weeks back (2011) i walked past, they had gone, XLN, must bea avoided at ALL COSTS!!!
I really hope they have been deported!!!
