    A fascinating observation.

    Not a huge issue, but this, in combination with the apparent small size of SG, and their absence from this site, makes me a tad suspicious. You might say it was a dummy role/advertisement, but I couldn't possibly comment.

    What's wrong with that - I suspect they adopting a pile them high, process it cheap policy which means they will pick the first 5 reasonably looking CVs and send those to the client - job done.

    started a topic Solutionize Global

    Solutionize Global

    Anyone dealt with the above agency? A search here returns nothing.

    Unusual in that they don't publish phone numbers in their job ads and won't take calls from applicants. Hmmmm.

Working...
