Is GMR a legit company, not sure what their problem is - ex-MQer


Posted: Aug 19, 2010

I saw an ad for GMR transcription and applied via their website’s application form.  I was using my mac at the time.  It didn’t seem to like it, so I then tried it using my Windows computer and I was able to proceed to the next step.  I get done with the application, I checked the box that asked if I would agree to a test, I pasted my resume and sent it on its way.  Nothing.  Although I did get a confirmation email that they received my application I never heard back from them.  I followed up a few weeks later and they never answered back.  Although this normally automatically gives me bad vibes about a place’s availability to its people not to mention questions their integrity in other areas, I know that sometimes these places are just inundated with resumes and etc.  So I let it alone.  

A couple of months later I tried again.  Reentered all my info, everything as stated above just to see if I would get a different reply, and I did.  This time, I get some emails from Ms. Worthy.  She put me on her newsletter list, I think I agreed to it in the application process-I don’t remember, and the other email shows me a link that I can use to connect to their test.  I clicked it and there’s no test, it just sends me back to their application page!  There’s no test anywhere on the page or the email, there were no other links, there were no  attachments and according to their FAQ section when they want you to test you get an email with attachments and instructions.  

I don’t know what the hell is going on.

I think it’s safe to say I won’t be working for these weirdos anytime soon, but is this normal for them?  S.N.A.F.U.?

 

I think the name kind of says it all... Global Marketing Resources - Just my opinion

Is that the one in California?

Don't be rude when someone is trying to help you - She assumed you had more critical thinking skills

Don't they know that ICs are not - required to work

[ In Reply To ..]
a "shift"?

They are contradicting themselves and their email and ad are so confusing that I wouldn't trust it.

But that's just me.

Oh, and then there's the fee you have to pay.

No way!

yikes - ex-MQer

Yeah that contractor fee is a new one on me. This place is definitely sending red flags all over the place. I tried to look them up at the BBB website and they apparently have a page but it won̢۪t load. So that̢۪s all I wanted to know. Thanks to all for answering.

IT IS A SCAM - No legitimate company asks for money

[ In Reply To ..]
Stay away from any company that asks you to send them money to get a job. it is a well known scam. Thanks for highlighting them here so people recognize and stay away from that name.

They probably did you a favor by not contacting you. You would have some big headaches if you had sent them $165!!
