Heads up for those who dont know
dont fukk with Insight Global
Majority of their postings are non existent jobs, that were probably filled months if not well over a year ago. They just fish for resumes using attractive job Descriptions to bait people. IF they actually call you, it will be to confirm your interest in a job followed by a "ill forward this over to my manager" or "I'll be in touch" before ghosting you.
The last thing they will do is ask for managerial references as a requirement to move along in the "hiring" process. Me sensing some fukkery, I provided them with fake names, numbers and emails of supposed former managers, and I pretended to be one of them. On the call they asked a few questions about "the candidate but then spent most of their time trying to establish a partnership so that they could recruit from the company listed. He calls back after 20 minutes but doesnt leave a voicemail. So clearly it wasnt actually for me but my fictional manager. He never followed up to move along the hiring process following the reference check. there was never a job to fill, just wanted free leads to upsell to.
90% of the time I'd applied through Insight Global in the past, they've been a resume black hole. But I was shocked to make it further than a "you seem like a great fit" phone screen or Linkedin message.
3rd party reruiters are shyt regadless of comapny but Insight is particularly scummy. I had time to play along and bullshyt them as hard as they bullshytted me I found out what they actuallly do with references.
