This was my first job out of college and boy was being one of their contractors a learning experience. I got offered a position for a major national corporation through them. The pay was extremely low, even for a recent grad, for that area but I took the experience with an esteemed company as a trade off. A few months into the job and I realized I was missing weeks of pay at a time. I had to go back and forth with the consulting firm to get this resolved. No benefits were offered whatsoever. So on holidays when I was mandated not to work, I had no pay. This was particularly difficult in the November-December months as I lost nearly an entire paycheck due to holidays.

The company I was working at had a policy that contractors could only be employed in a position for 30 months. I was at 24 months when I took a position with a new company as a direct hire (but was found via a different consulting firm).

The moment I tendered my resignation, AVA Consulting s demeanor changed entirely. The owner became extremely rude and eventually non-responsive. Almost immediately, I began receiving threatening emails from both the owner s email address and the admin s email address demanding money they claim I owe (I don t). Years later, I still receive these threatening emails. I tried to contact the company earlier in the year in case they had been hacked, but was laughed at.

I value my experience with the company I was placed with, but working with AVA Consulting was and continues to be horrific despite no longer being their contractor.

I needed a Job and the Folks at this Company have done everything in my view to help me. They have followed up with me consistently. I really appreciate that. I continue to work with them. They genuinely care. Better than any other Staffing Company I have come across.

I missed a call from this number and when I called the number back, an incredibly rude person answered and said her name was Kim. She said, "You need to check your voicemail to find out who called you." I advised her that they didn't leave a voicemail for me check. I asked to speak to a manager and she said she's the only one there. I told her I needed her managers name and number and she said, "You're not getting it from me." and she hung up in my face. HORRIBLE customer service. I would NEVER use this company for any reason.

Consistently spams me with emails for positions that are not even close to my experience. I didn't sign up for these emails and have tried to unsubscribe multiple times. They are now junk mail.

Recieved a phonecall from a man identified as Sal with a heavy accent, didn't speak clear english. I called to follow up with the actual Richardson office and was answered by a female who identified herself as Kimberly and when I asked if she could hear me, she replied I can now, come on. Highly unprofessional, rude. Seems like a scam or just not a reputable company.

This company has THE ABSOLUTE WORST english--every staff I have EVER come across!! I guarantee, every single week I am contacted by this outfit about a position. I complete the necessary paperwork and then get a call from these people. Not once, NOT A SINGLE TIME has their been a person from here been able to speak understandable American English! NOT ONCE! Every week someone calls me and ends my search with them! I can't understand anything they say! I'm usually pretty good deciphering when a foreigner speaks to me, I'm better than most actually. I've not ever been able to understand what anyone from here says. They're all from the middle East or there abouts, and their English is horrible. They truly have no business speaking to the American public with such thick foreign accents. Their English is the worst I've ever heard. Honest!

So, at 11:13 AT NIGHT, I receive a text from "Andy" with AVA. After asking why he's contacting me so late, he says that due to COVID, they are having to work late hours. So.....
#1 SHAME on AVA for putting things on their recruiter's shoulders to work this late into the night that they're INTERRUPTING most people's sleep time as well as their employee's sleep time!
#2 AVA- teach your recruiters to text from phone numbers that are local to the state that the people they are trying to recruit, live in.
#3 AVA- teach your recruiters that most people DO NOT want to hear from anyone other than family or close friends after about 8pm.

#5 AVA- teach your recruiters to use proper grammar, punctuation, & sentence structure in their texts if they want to SEEM like LEGIT business people who want to potentially represent jobseekers!

I mean, as a seeker- just seeing those (either lazy or uneducated) mistakes from someone representing YOUR business tells me that I am more qualified than they at representing me & that your company hires people who do NOT have skills in written communication. That says to me that your company is either bogus or EXTREMELY uncaring about it's image- in which case why the H3LL would I chance being associated with your company?
