Who called from 9723866133

Thank you for helping me save a long drive to their office.

Thanks for the input and feedback...I just received a message from Allisa at T.O.P. about my resume and will not be calling back to these preditors.
Perhaps I should and say I'll gladly pay the fee but my check will be drawn from the central Bank of Nigeria...LOL

I, too, was just in a meeting with Jim Stewart VP of Client services.  I have no college degree and he told me he could get me an exec. position with around a $200K base.  I told him that would be very difficult considering I have no degree and his response was "They have 100% success rate".  They wanted $4400 upfront the $4400 when they got me a position with the $200K salary.  I am sooooooooooooo glad I found this website with y'alls comments!!  I am desperate but not an idiot!

I thought the call was from a business that viewed my resume and wanted an interview.  It turns out; this is a company that goes by the name TOP.  It's in Two Lincoln Center on the 12th floor in a nice office space.  It looks official but during the "interview" Rob Mashigian VP of client services said something that immediately sent up a red flag.  I asked him about the company and he said you won't find us on the internet because we protect our client’s identities that are looking for jobs while they are still employed.  Further on in the conversation as he was telling a story about a client they helped he mentioned they negotiated a signing bonus and to have their "fees" paid. The 2 page slick has very little content and no mention of fees or specific services provided.  I was also given a stapled printed what was called a "redacted copy" of client testimonials.  I was also given a copy of an article from the Harvard Business School Publishing Corporation and told that it was written by a former client who said they could hand this out to any business woman who needed it. (Again stapled paper copy he printed while I was there).  I have no proof this is a scam but honestly after reading the other blog posts for the same company with different phone numbers I am going to trust my instincts.  These were the other numbers:  972-726-8700 (on Rob's business card) - 972-239-1575, 972-759-0076, 972-386-6133

I received a similar call this morning and did some quick checks after the short phone conversation.  First "one or our executives would like to meet you face to face" is a red flag in todays market.  Phone interviews happen first, as face to face meetings are a waste of everyones time.  Face to face meetings are useful to sales people since a 'captive' audience is much easier to pitch.

Then I googled the company and TOP is a fairly smart name for what they are doing.  "TOP executive/career/anything you want to put/dallas" will always bring up a LARGE number of articles that reference the subject, but make it difficult to pin down the actual company.  Their website is a complete joke.  it's full of stock photos's and paragraph text blobs in a 1/3 to 2/3 split.  Saying it's a template is giving them to much credit.   "Website tonight" is more like it.

As an IT Director, i tend to over-research things and can identify a false front.  I'd like to thank everyone here for taking the time to comment..I had already cancelled any further correspondence with this company, but confirmation will help me sleep tonight!

"more millionaires were made in the great depression than any other time in history"...is likely what they tell themselves on a daily basis.
