Hi guys
As part of my job search, I am in touch through phone and e-mail with placement agencies. In addition, I got calls from consultants from Toronto and I met them. After their polite introduction, review of CV face to face, beautiful expression of words, finally they conclude with their professional fees e.g. $7000 with instalment plan and insist to sign a contract with them valid for 2-3 three years. They said they would get job for 100% in 2-3 months and try to persuade to sign the contract. When I said there is no such big money, they came down and say pay whatever you have even $200 then swipe with debit/credit card etc.
What is your opinion. Is is the right approach. Can we trust them? Are they reliable? what is the safety for us.
Comments most welcome.

In my opinion, anyone who tries to charge you $7000 to find you a job is running some kind of scam.

Hi

In my opinion, anyone who tries to charge you $7000 to find you a job is running some kind of scam.

And thats the reason (applicants buying AEOS) that over 70% of FSW2 applications are refused in New Delhi and Hong Kong.
