This agency is not what they seem. Shame on me for not doing more research on them. I was called by JVT Advisors for a Business Analyst position because my resume was on Monster. Now I get a lot of calls through Monster from recruiters and for some reason, I called them back. After speaking with one of the owners, he said there was a position in my area and I was ready for a change so my interest was peaked. After speaking with him and hearing about the position, I had some concerns that I had voiced. I had not been in an IT position for a few years and my experience was very limited. He eased my concerns saying that they would be willing to train the right person that the position was open-ended but they had placed people there and had been there for years and that most of their IT staff were consultants. I had been at my former employer for over 5 years and was a little apprehensive but I went on an interview anyways. The interview went well and I was very honest with my experience and why I was interviewing. Needless to say, I was offered the job. After a few weeks where I was put on a large project that I had no experience, I voiced my concerns to my IT lead and how I was not comfortable. She said she was not sure why I was put on this task since I did not know there systems. This apparently went on deaf ears. Needless to say, there was no training. I was on my own with this huge stress. I reached out to JVT and asked if they had heard anything and if everything was ok since my confidence was lacking. I was always worried at that point if I was going to have a job. After a month, I was called by a JVT rep stating that the contract had ended. When asked for feedback, they said they did not know why however, after filing for unemplyment, there was a reason.. performance. They had done everything to get me in to make there money and then they lied to me. I asked if they had any other positions and they said they would get back to me. I never heard back. So here I am on unemployment. Thanks JVT for nothing.
