Report
DO NOT WORK WITH. You hope to find more ethical business practices than the ones displayed by this agency. Specifically singling out Peggy Wilson. Far too many recruiters in the city to choose to partner with one that operates like she does. Don't waste your time and do NOT give them your resume. They'll send it unsolicited to every company they work with and risk your job search confidentiality. Wish I could give zero stars.
