What people say about Summit Human Capital
Let’s have a look at some of the reviews here
One of the clients here mentions that the company by Glenn Diersen looks different in reality than on paper. Further writing about his experience working with Summit Humam Capital he mentions that this startup is only concerned about aesthetics. Whatever they can do to appear more diversified, professional, caring, and so on, they will do. Once you begin, you will discover that the environment is anything but collaborative, caring, and empowering. The issue here is with upper management. They claim to care about “changing lives,” yet it’s all about money in the end. People in the C-suite who are terrified of diversity.
One of the clients described Glenn Diersen’s company Summit Human Capital as a mess!!. This client served in the company as a software engineer and he said that after reviewing his resume, they informed him that the position he was being placed for would require the use of javascript and AWS. When he arrived the first week, he was told he would be working with Java, angular, and AWS.
They and the client were all unaware that he had no Java experience (or interest). Furthermore, they provided no severance and did nothing to make amends for their misplacement.
The client mentioned that for this opportunity in Glenn Diersen’s company, he turned down other opportunities to accept this one, and now he is in the position to try to find work after this colossal blunder. It also doesn’t help that one of the company’s founders was involved in the blunder.
He further also put a word of advice in his review for the management of Glenn Diersen’s company Summit Human Capital that they should first acquire a deep knowledge of the IT industry before placing people in tech companies.
The other client of Summit Human Capital mentioned that Glenn Diersen’s company makes fake promises to people seeking job opportunities and then grabs a higher rate of share from the salary of the individual. He further calls this practice and the company unethical and unprofessional. He further adds on saying that these unethical practices will one day make this company pay a lot in terms of reputation.
A client named Brandon Gilmore shares his experience working with the company and describes it as very disappointing. Here’s what he has to share.
Brandon mentions that while he was initially enthusiastic about the prospect, his experience with Summit Human Capital’s recruitment process has been less than acceptable. He feels compelled to share his story for others to be informed of potential problems.
To begin, after a 30-minute introduction phone call, the recruiter planned an interview for the following morning but did not show up without prior notification or communication.
This made him feel uneasy about the scenario. He also appreciates that unexpected events sometimes occur, but he believes that clear and timely communication is crucial in sustaining a professional relationship.
After the missed interview, the recruiter phoned Brandon five days later to reschedule and requested that he be available within a week. Brandon instantly provided my availability, but the entire week went by with no more communication or confirmation of the rescheduled interview.
Brandon is a person who is serious about his profession and appreciates his time. He expects potential employers to be professional and respectful, and this encounter did not match those standards. He is hopeful that Summit would consider this criticism and seek to improve its recruitment process. Further Brandon adds that he has decided to move ahead to pursue some other good opportunities available that better match his objectives and ideals.
These reviews by some of the clients of Glenn Diersen’s company Summit Human Capital show us that this company is not what it portrays in front of people.
Wrapping up with some of the points to remember before choosing a recruitment agency
- Does the recruiter offer genuine details?
If a recruitment agency requests a security deposit or other upfront money, this is an indication that the agency is fraudulent.
- Recruiter well-versed in the job profile?
It is critical to ensure that the recruitment agency understands the job description and explicitly outlines the obligations. To avoid fraud, always ask about the job description in full, and if they are unable to give you the necessary information, this is a red flag. A reputable agency, on the other hand, will thoroughly describe the work description and other obligations of the desired position.
- Is the recruiter open to sharing the client details with you?
To determine whether an agency is genuine or not, always request information about the company’s profile, links to its website, and so on. A reputable recruitment firm will always disclose information about a company to you.
- Does the recruiter show an interest in your job preference?
A recruiting agency’s objective is to assist you in finding a job that matches your credentials and qualifications. So, if a recruitment firm shows no interest in your interests and makes no relevant ideas, it may be a clue that they are untrustworthy.
- Does the recruiter share any constructive feedback on your resume/job application?
A genuine recruitment firm understands the needs of a certain organization and will always advise you on how to improve your resume before submitting it to an organization. Because doing so will boost your chances of being accepted. Professional agencies keep in touch with you from the minute you provide your information until your hire is completed.
- Is the recruiter willing to share salary or compensation details with you?
However, if an organization fails to ask you questions about previous pay or expected salary, then there are greater chances that they might be deceiving you.
Conclusion
It is clearly understood how difficult it is to get a good job in a reputed firm. The only method to contact a company is personally or through a recruitment agency. However, if one conducts thorough research on the firm before applying and follows the above measures to check for fakeness then one can avoid being duped. Fake recruiters are difficult to detect, but not impossible.
One needs to be cautious when providing personal information to an agency since people never know how one can utilize it unlawfully. Never take shortcuts or believe in any job that is advertised online or sounds too good to be true.
