found out about open position via branch manager's linked in post. contacted him & submitted resume. got called in right away. asked some behavioral questions. got called back next wk for 2nd interview with director of division. simple (tell me about a time when) kind of questions. was given a decision/offer within 48hrs and asked to start the following wk.

I applied to work for the Creative Group as an Account Coordinator. Less than an hour later I received a phone call and the recruiter told me that while I didn't have enough experience for the role, they would be interested in trying to "help" me by trying to find me a position with one of their clients. She told me that since I am a recent graduate I wouldn't be able to find anything other than a contract position, and when I informed her that I was not interested in working with them she said that it would be "extremely difficult" for me to find a job without them. I received a call later from another recruiter and when I informed her that I had already told another recruiter that I was not interested, she again tried to hint that I would not be able to find a job without their help. Afterwards, I received a LinkedIn request from the same recruiter, and I have a feeling that I will continue to hear from them in the future, Recent graduates, look out. They are looking for people who are worried and try to prey on your insecurities and convince you that you will never find a job without their help. Absolutely no interest in working with or working for this company in the future.
