Client Review on Priority One Staffing

Feedback:

I was invited in for an appointment with Brittany on 12/14/2018. I arrived to the appointment dressed in professional attire while the entire office was dressed in jeans and tennis shoes. I had trouble locating the office, so I contacted the agency for directions. The receptionist was very rude to me and would not provide me with any helpful information. When I finally arrived to this office, I informed the receptionist that I was there for my appointment. After meeting with the Brittany, the recruiter, I was immediately informed that the position for which I applied was filled the same day that my appointment was. I was disappointed because the following day, I was required to take a 4 hour adobe acrobat assessment to even qualify for the position. How ironic it is that this office requires for candidates to be at a level of mastery in this application, while this agency is still using paper applications and forms. The recruiter informed me that they only have file clerk positions available for me at that point. I accepted the position and left the office, under the impression that they were going to conduct a background screening. On my way home, I called the office to inquire about the processing fee for the background screening and if I would be responsible for the fee out of pocket. The receptionist informed me that they cover the fee. A few minutes later, the so called office manager called me and told me that my demeanor was belligerent and that I could no longer be considered represent their business for that reason and that she was no longer going to place me in an assignment. When I attempted to inquire about how I came off this way, she refused to provide any details about that. I then asked this person what her name because she did not identify herself at any point during the call. She then because very belligerent with me stating that she does not have identify herself to me and that she was going to escalate my concern to the Vice President of the company. How ironic is it that my demeanor was unacceptable when this woman was displaying the exact same behavior. When I inquired about the name of the Vice President, she refused to provide me the name of this person as well. I have never encountered such unprofessional behavior in my life by a business. And the fact that this is a black owned business, displaying this level of unprofessionalism is very sad. I reported this business to the BBB in hopes of addressing this issue.
