Poor Communication and Recruitment Experience
The reviewer, a nurse, shares a disappointing experience with the company. They were initially offered two shifts a week, but after accepting, the employer stopped responding to their emails, texts, and calls without notification. This lack of communication left the reviewer feeling frustrated and misled.
Questionable Business Practices
The reviewer suspects that the company only wants to obtain their pin number, without any genuine intention of hiring them. This has led to a warning to "stay well clear" of the company, implying that others may experience similar treatment.
