Comments:
posted in monster.com and that she has great opportunities for. Explained briefly about two jobs she was working with one real estate the other a jewlery store, in a very fast paced speaking tone. When I went to the interview she asked briefly about my resume and said she had a collegue that wanted to ask me some questions; the collegue comes in says hi and leaves. They shook my hand and left, and I had to let myself out; they seemed to have disappeared because even the receptionist wasn't at her desk. Very rude people.

Suzanne calls about 3 hours later saying she got me an interview and to call her after the interview. I go to the interview and find out I am not near qualified for the job. I didn't call her and I never heard from them again.
