I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Actalent in Feb 2023
Interview
I applied for a lab tech position. I had a call from the recruiter for a quick phone interview and she said she will call me back with more " job opportunity ". I never heard from her after that. Then I got a call a month later from them but a whole different recruiter. All he ask me if Im still looking for a job I said yes and all he said was that he has all of my information from the last reciter who talked to me and said he will call me back with " job opportunities" and once again I never heard anything back. All this job agency does is take your information and put you in their System and ghost you. I think a lot of these job that they post are nonexistent. Please apply with this agency with warning!
