Sales Search Partners is a recruiter for technical and sales related positions. I applied for a position they were recruiting for and was told I was an excellent candidate in a phone consult with them. They said they would submit my resume, and wanted to have a Skype interview with me later in the week. The recruiter was late for the meeting. He was excited about me I was told they were going to submit my resume and attempt to bypass their client's phone screen policy and get me immediately in for a live interview. I pointed out that he told me he'd already submitted my resume several days earlier. He backtracked a little bit and said he had given my resume to his manager and was waiting to talk to me. He said he would follow up with me within 3 days. I followed up at the end of the third day and he had clearly forgotten about me. He told me that he hadn't heard back yet and will follow up with me within 1 week. He didn't, so again, I did. He told me that I was "in play" and would hear back from him within a week. Again, I had to call. At that time, I found out they hadn't even submitted my resume yet because they had another candidate that had interviewed and wanted to see how it worked out for that individual before submitting anything else. When I said that he told me my resume had been submitted, he backtracked again and said "oh yes, we did". He tried to convince me I wanted a different Job. Except, they didn't. I immediately applied directly and had 4 interviews. They had never seen my resume before. A month later, the recruiter contacted me to tell me they didn't hire his candidate and asked if he wanted to submit my resume now. I was obviously lied to the entire time and I lost a so much time.
