***URGENT*** PLEASE! PLEASE! PLEASE! READ BELOW
Apex contacted me through my Career Builder account and proposed a 6-month contract and 30% pay increase with UBER Freight with a no brainer job conversion into UBER Freight at the end of the contract. At the time I had a good job with a financial company, but the offer from Apex was too good to pass up. At that time the overly aggressive recruiter from Apex gave me 24 hours to make up my mind and wanted me to start in 8 days. At this point I should have smelled a rat, if it is too good to be true it usually isn’t.
I start training with Uber freight at an entry level position. Everything was running smoothly, and I was doing a good job according to my team leader at Uber. My confidence was high, and I was learning new material every day. I never missed a day and really enjoyed my position.
Here is where the wheels start to come off, my 6-month contract was abruptly cut down to 3 months, it was strange, that was exactly how long ago I started. New news, I was told that I had to interview for the job that I had performed for the last 3 months. This seemed like no big deal until the interview process started. I was interview by 3 new uber managers who were new to the interview process and it felt that I was their trial applicant. Needless to say, I was not retained by Uber freight with no logical reasons given. My manager was perplexed and extended my contract for a month and requested that I be interviewed again which at the time seemed strange since I just went through the interview process a week prior. Here again I was practice material for training managers with the same results, no Uber retention. Here is how it went down; I was interviewed on a Wednesday and on Friday I received a call from Apex hatchet person at 6 PM telling me not to return to work on Monday with no explanation. I tried to call my recruiter several times on the following Monday with no return call and this is the same person who fed me all this BS about helping get another position if Uber didn’t work out. I feel like I was used and abused by Apex and Uber.
