I'm sure this has happened to others. I'm going to explain the star rating first; the two people I spoke over the phone and via email were professional, courteous and patient when asked to repeat themselves or reword things I wasn't understanding, this isn't what the review is about. This review is about the wait time and lack of communication back to various emails sent, as well as a few other items mentioned during the phone calls. * I wasn't told where the agency received my information from, there was no mention of Indeed, glassdoor career builder, etc that I remember being told that would help me link them to where my info was posted publicly. * I was asked to provide the last 5 of my SSN and was informed that it was to check if my information was already in the system of BCBSM. Pretty sketchy, but I have been asked this before from some recruiting companies that were legit (Aerotek, 22nd century solutions, etc.) * I was informed that it would take 48hr (last contact was made 09Sept22, present dare is 16Sept22) to receive information about the Job, and that I could reach out for any questions I may have. I had submitted a review when the time waited went into a week, i was called and asked to remove the review. I was then told a different time frame ( 2-3 weeks or longer) that I would need to wait for them to hear back from the company the resume was submitted to. *I have reached out 3x inquiring about how the process is going to be met with no replies or responses. I chalked this up to a time zone difference since some of the employees work internationally but quickly found out the 2 people who contacted me are located in Ann Arbor. I've been seeing some very mixed reviews from this company ranging from very legitimate to being a data collecting scam. I'm not quite sure what to believe, but from the communication I haven't received about this opportunity, I'm leaning toward this being predatory and want to warn anyone who is contacted to proceed with caution.

Unprofessional they messaged me for a job opportunity a month ago after my response it took them another month to get back to me. This company is most likely a scam and i would suggest ignoring any messages/calls from here.

I liked a job listing on LinkedIn from this company (may have applied to it through LinkedIn as well--I've been putting in a lot of apps). I received an email from a recruiter with a Tekwissen email address encouraging me to apply for it. I sent her my resume, but she also wanted me to answer several questions including the last four digits of my SSN. I said I was not comfortable giving that over email. She responded that it was necessary to continue the process. I got a bad vibe and contacted the company they were supposedly recruiting for. That company told me in no uncertain terms that they do not use recruiting agencies, they only accept applications for jobs at their company (and all jobs at the company are listed) through their website (not through third party recruiters), and their own recruiters only contact candidates through email addresses from their company website. Tekwissen is probably the most elaborate hiring scam I've come across, but it is a scam.

Now that I am working on the company, I have encountered some difficulties and inconsistencies with what they’ve told me in the beginning. They mention I would have full coverage with healcare and dental insurance. Which is not true, I have to pay either a hundred or 2 hundred dollars every two weeks for my health care, and some more for my dental and vision if I want it. Also they said I would have 401k plan which is not true because HR told me it is a plan that was not even implemented right now. I am considering my decision of continuing on the company because it has not been according with what I was told at the beginning. I don’t know what can be done in this situation?

Questions & Answers

Can anyone tell me if this is a legit staffing agency? They want me to send my soc. Via email and I'm a little skeptical.

We are legitimate and have been in business for 13(+) years helping individuals find employment and gig opportunities. Many of us in the staffing industry, especially those of us with a portions of our team offshore, are labeled a “scam” or not “legit”. This may be, at least in part, a reaction to the numerous well known actual scams utilizing various call centers from around the world to perpetrate the scams. This belief may also come from those who are unfamiliar with the virtual recruiting process or didn’t qualify for a position they were submitted for. We even get this false claim from individuals that genuinely are confused about how our business operates and may genuinely believe their claim. Regardless of why, we are legitimate and are willing to engage with anyone with a sincere interest in learning more about us or the many career opportunities we have available every day. We can be found on LinkedIn, Glassdoor, and social media. Or, you can visit us at Tekwissen.com

Is this company a placement agency

When a staffing agency is further away they ask for that info sent. Especially when its contract work that they picked up and need filled. Tekwissen appears to be real. Hell I worked in Iowa and my employer was in Florida. The info was all sent online for the job. I suggest calling them and at least chatting a bit before making judgments. Not every place is a scam. ;)
