Comments:
A couple of months ago they found my resume on the internet (Monster.com) and proceeded to call me. The recruiter was pushy over the phone, stating to me "I have the perfect position for you" and that she wanted to me to come in and register. I should have known better, but when during the interview nothing was mentioned regarding this "perfect" position. As angry as I was for having my time wasted, and worst yet, being lied to.
Yesterday they called my stating they wanted to send me on an interview, but they didn't really know anything about the position. I went to the interview, but because they really didn't provide vital information concerning the position, I was at a major disadvantage. I wouldn't trust any of the representatives as far as I could throw them.
