Tell us has your experience with this business or person been good? What's this?
Signed with Bernard Haldane on 07/15/02 for $4500.00. It all sounded like such sweetness and light. Have I found a company that has an answer to my work search problem? NO!

As time went on I was beginning to realize that I had made a very expensive mistake. There is no hidden job market, there are no millions of jobs to choose from and as far as the capabilities of the staff of BH, those individuals are limited at best.

I initially gave them every benifit. Filled out the company evaluations in a positive light and went along with what I was told to do. I was begining to have my doubts when I came across a friend who had the BH experience. He tries to warn me but it was to late.

It all started to make sense, I had been taken. I should have known when they told me to say to perspective employers "I am not expecting you to have or know of a job for me". Tell me I'm crazy, but this sounds slightly counter productive.

I admit that I have been fooled and taken for a $4500.oo ride. But I must say that they are professional bull shooters. This company will lie to you with a smile and a firm hand shake. Beware

DID YOU RECEIVE A FULL REFUND? I am interested to know what resulted in a "satisfactory resolution" to this comment. I am a victim of Carole Tipton who worked for Bernard Haldane & Associates then in 1988 started her own company, Phillips-Carlyle International which has had 2 more names: Carlyle and Associates and now Career Connect. Check out the comments from dissatisfied clients under "Carlyle and Associates." This is the name under which most complaints have been filed. Ms. Tipton has promised refunds in exchange for "satisfactory resolution" comments being entered by her unsatisfied clients who took the few minutes to enter a report here on The Ripoff Report. One such "satisfactory resolution" was retracted when they entered that update and SURPRISE! did not receive their refund as promised.
