Because that sounds great!! I just graduated a Big 3 school. I will definitely check them out!!! Thank you!!  : )

I am considering going through a community college that has a 100 hour internship program at the end.  I want to know if this will be enough to hire on as a trainee with them. 

Is it just Career Step they approve of?  Anyone know? 

Out of curiosity, I too applied.  That has scam written all over it, and you will notice that it is gone off the board now.  NEVER, NEVER do anything that involves you opening an account for someone else, giving them your personal information, etc.  My husband is a VP for a bank and he says every day he gets people who come in with checks that they want to cash from these internet lottery winnings where they just have to cash the check and then send them so much of the check but they can keep $1200 of the money just for their time.  Then they will receive their big payment, but the reality is in the meantime, they have cashed a bad check and now they are out the money they sent in a cashier's check to the scam artist and they have to cover the amount of the bad check which is most often $5000 dollars or so.  Funny enough when my husband explains this to most people, they get mad at him for not cashing the check, because they soooooo want to believe they really won the lottery not to mention they sooooo want the $1200 they could get right away.  Never mind the fact that he just actually saved them $5000 + money in NSF fees.  At any rate, be careful out there, the world is FULL of scam artists just waiting to steal your hard earned money!!  Stay safe and have a wonderful Christmas All!!

DO NOT WORK FOR SOUTHSCRIBE in Atlanta Georgia!!! My wife started working for Sandy Edelman (apparently the owner of the company) in October. After the 2nd week, he promised she would receive a check for her work thus far. She never received this check but he made excuses and said he would mail it the next day. After working for a month, when the contract she was working on for him was over, he again promised he would send a check for the entire amount that he owed her (over $200). We still received nothing. Finally, I called him personally and he told me that he sent a check out on 11/5/05. We did not receive this check. I have left 4 voice messages on 2 different numbers that he has and emailed him at the address that he used to contact my wife through and have heard nothing from him. You can also find at least 4 other similar complaints on this website by searching for Southscribe. If you want to avoid the grief, stay clear of this company!

For a cost, of course.

This is the scenario--Company advertises what sounds like a really nice position.  Resume is submitted.  Information and test is received with message to urgently return it, for the first one who passes the test will be hired.  Some time passes, so applicant decides to not continue with test, as someone probably already passed and was hired.  Recruiter is notified that applicant will not continue.  Then, recruiter contacts applicant to encourage her to complete the test anyway, because no real decisions will be made for a couple of days!! 

Question:  Does this sound like one of those recruitment situations where the recruiter is using applicants as workers, to get some reports done?

I also worked for Southscribe out of Georgia.  He is quite the scam artist.  I worked for him from September through November 2006.  The first 2 checks came on time and were correct, but were personal checks.  Then, I received a money order for payment and he stated that he was waiting on more checks to come in from the bank.  Then, nothing.  He kept saying he mailed them and they must have gotten lost in the mail.  I kept working giving him the benefit of the doubt.  Still nothing.  A month later I began to get pissed.  I called him several times and got excuse after excuse.  Finally, I told him that if I did not have payment that day I would quit.  He promised he would Western Union a payment.  He even called me and said it was sent.  I lived about 30-45 minutes away from the next town.  I drove in for it not to be there.  Several phone calls later he says he sent it, but it was not sent.  My husband called and got very verbal with him and told him he would hear from our lawyer.  The owner called me telling me he did not appreciate my husband calling him when this is between us. I told him I did not appreciate him not paying me for a month.  He assured me the payment was now sent.  At this point, I had spent 3 hours in town waiting for payment.  I went to Western Union again to find out he only sent $150 out of the $650 he owed me.  To this day, we have not seen another penny.  WATCH OUT FOR THIS ONE!  It is really a sad shame for those who want to stay home with their kids and still work when someone like this comes along. We have not been able to contact him since this has happened.  I have been told there is not company by this name any longer, but who knows if he is scamming under another company name.  LET'S HOPE NOT!!!!!
