I got a call from this number today with a hangup and no message. I am looking for work and have filled out numerous applications online so may be the issue. I don;t need a hassle though, just genuine interest in my resumes.
This scammer is using resumes posted on monster.com and/or careerbuilder.com to solicit job seekers for education opportunities. I was sucked in thinking that Lock Heed Martin was interested in my resume for an Executive Assistant position, only to find out that the scammer did not nor ever had any affiliation w/Lock Heed Martin. When you call they will not identify their company name and answer the phone "Human Resources". They take your personal information and almost from the second you hang up you will receive a call, in my case from a person claiming to be from the University of Phoenix offering education opportunities. I am of course concerned because they now have my personal information and have wasted my time which is valuable. I could have used this time to seek legitimate job opportunities. I hope someone can help!
This number 213-325-3204 is not associated with any scams. When you get a call from VeriResume, they are responding to an application that an applicant completed online. VeriResume is contracted by hundreds of employers that verify information that was completed during the initial process of the application. VeriResume also does not solicit. The opportunity to receive free information from participating Universities is just a benefit to each applicant that applies for employment through our websites. Information is free and there is no obligation. Only when an applicant agrees to being contacted, for FREE information, does a representative call. All applications are then forwarded onto a client services manager for review whether the applicant agrees to the free information or not. If the applicant is qualified for the position, the client services manager will then contact the applicant for an interview. Not everyone receives a phone call from the client services manager because not everyone is qualified. This is a legitimate company that helps applicants find a job.
I also received a phone call from 213-325-3204. THIS a scam and it has nothing to do with Lock Heed Martin. The person/persons that sent me this application claim to be from Lock Heed Martin. One of the questions was if I was interested in furthing my education I replied NO and then it kicked me out of the system saying that there was a system error and that I had to retry sending the application later. And it's not a benefit to receive information when I'm not looking for it. This company helps applicants find jobs...they have lied because they said they were from Lock Heed Martin and would like to talk to me about a job they said nothing about helping me look for a job. They need to be reported to BBB. I plan to get ahold of someone in the Lock Heed Martin Organization to and let them know what this so call company is doing "VeriResume".
I missed a call from 213-325-3204 and no message was left. Since, I'm currently seeking for new job opportunities, I decided to call back. In fact, I called them back 4 times. All four times there was a recording stating that all hr representatives were busy now and to call back later. That is when I decided to look up the company's name by using the phone number displayed on my caller ID. I can't to think this was a call to scam on people.
