Tell us has your experience with this business or person been good? What's this?

 My mother complained against, Christian at Express Employment "Professionals" out of the Murfreesboro, TN office for age discrimination. During the interview process Christian asked my mother if she was over 40 (EEOC anyone?). After that interview my mother successfully completed all required testing for an administrative position. The following day she was told they no longer had any administrative positions available. Upon this experience my mother filed a rip off report, not even 24 hours later she received a call from Christian inquiring about my mother's report. She explained to my mother that she asked her age to see if she qualified for a tax credit. By the end of the call my mother was offered and excepted a housekeeping position with the understanding that Express would continue to try and place her in an administrative role. At some point Christian told my mother she only qualified for a housekeeping position. This of course upset my mother especially because she is a certified medical assistant. Earlier today while speaking with my mother she explained the above ordeal which prompted me to call Express and speak with Christian on my mother's behalf. When I called the receptionist informed me Christian was in an interview. I then asked to speak with a manager and was transferred to Becky. I explained to Becky that my mother felt as if she was being discriminated against and how she felt about being told she only qualified to be a housekeeper. Becky defended Christian every step of the way ensuring me that there was miscommunication between My mother and Christian. By the end of the conversation Becky tells me that my mother accepted the housekeeping position. The problem is this so called manager was chuckling while she was telling me my mother accepted the position . I asked her what was so funny and she began laughing pretty hard and said, "I'm not laughing ". I explain to her, "I can hear you laughing ". She says, " You can't see my face" like I'm an idiot or something. In our opinion Christian obviously has been taught unlawful and discriminatory practices and her manager Becky is tacky, unprofessional, and a liar!!! It's time to hold this company responsible for the lack of honor and dignity in their so called business practices!!!

I have worked in the staffing field (not for Express) and I have NEVER heard of anyone being asked if they are over 40! In fact, the tax credit questions are done online and the staffing employees are not privvy to the results.  In my opinion, they are full of BS. Oh and I have also never heard of a professional laughing like that!  Has anyone checked to see if that person is over the age of 18?  Pathetic! I would contact the EEOC, the BBB and the Consumer Protection Division of the State's Attorney General's Office.  Also, many of these Express offices are franchise-owned, I would look into contacting the owner.  Good luck!
