Search Recruitment - Glasgow Reviews 2

I must state I have never experienced a more incompetent bunch of people. From day 1 one mistakes were happening. They offered me a job (woo) and then rescinded the offer on the Friday (was due to start on the Monday), then Monday at 1100 called me to ask if i could start in 20 minutes. I found this behaviour highly irregular, and then when they had the audacity to ask if I still wanted the job when I said i couldn't start until the Tuesday, i found their tone rude. However i though hey-ho I am sure it will be fine, how wrong I was.

When i begun my role, i got my first pay and sadly i was on an emergency tax, I understand this can happen, i contacted HMRC to get a new Tax code however after providing it to Search they still have not resolved this issue. This has now been an on-going issue for 5 month, and when i ask them about it they will now just ignore my emails regarding this situation.

Search also ended my employment without letting me or my employer know by error, this lead to all my holiday pay which i had accrued being paid out, resulting in a loss of funds as a pay rise was coming in 2 weeks later, sadly Search did not even attempt to resolve this issue and failed to even offer a simply apology.

When i did go on holiday Search decided to ignore my emails requesting holiday pay and only responded when i emailed with a subject title "joke". And instead of resolving the situation they just threatened to fire me and did not resolve me getting holiday pay for time off.

Overall once you are hired by them and you have any issue, they will not try and resolve it, and if i am being truthful they either need a new career or re-training as the way they treaded members of staff was shocking, and was enough that it has led to me find alternate employment.

I had contact with Search last year after applying for a position I found on Indeed. I delt with Alana, who gave such positivity about my application and she asked me to see her in the Glasgow office. When I met, she took further details, and promised the application would be passed to the company (which I won't name, they prob never had the job available). I would then get a face to face interview. I chased for weeks after asking about an interview and eventually she never responded to me. The job in question was live on their website for months. I reapplied weeks after my visit, then no response.
I have now found myself unemployed and I have applied for a job through Search, close to my home, immediate start. I am over skilled for this position and I've heard nothing back though I received an email from a male staff member to let me know they have an exciting opportunity! Nothing about the actual application that I submitted.
Totally useless and a data obtaining scam! Don't waste your time going to their office and you'll be wasting your time. I am now trying to avoid all recruitment companies in my job search due the experience with Search. Better to apply direct with the employer. Wouldn't recommend
