I have got a call today and the name was so****ing like "Hanson D corporation". They ask several questions close to my resume description and promised to send an email. The signal was bad and persons s***ch was very difficult to understand.

I got same call on Sunday noon. But the signal was very bad, it disconneted several times. How come the agent call you on weekend? It sounds unreasonaable to me.

I received a call too.  The lady who called had such a strong accent that I could not figure out her name.  She was offering me a position in London, however, I am located in Toronto.  The only thing that I could get out of her was the telephone number.  How can someone recruit people when they do not speak English?

Relax! Ant and Bee is an actual recruiting agency in Toronto. Their website is not great and staff come from a variety of ethnic and linguistic backgrounds -which is normal in Ca***a. They have actual jobs that pay real money -permanent, part-time and contract -across a wide range of sectors. I did a 6 month contract through them as project manager for a policy development program with the government of Nunavut in the arctic. It was a great job and exposed me to a place I would have ever seen if not for their hard work getting me the position. They are many things, but illegitimate they are not. cheers Robert

They called my phone a***n, I answered, and I told them I am already fully employed.  She said it was to put my name in a pool because they are a hiring agent and they would give me another call if so****ing came up.  But then she said, "Thank you, I will make a note of that you are already employed.  Have a good day, good-bye".  She was reading from a script, but it could have been possible employement.  I'm not sure, oh well.

I also had a message on my phone, Sunday night at 8:30.  I had to listen to the message 3 times and I still couldn't make out the name of the company.  The message asked if I was looking for pt or ft work, and they wanted my email info.  I only posted my resume on Monster.com, and it includes my email address.  I'm not going to call it back.

Got at call as well.  Thanks for the heads up on the telemarketing job.

SAME B.S.,  JUST LIST TO THE OPERATOR'S ANNOUNCMENT, U WILL KNOW INSTANTLY WHAT KIND OF OPERATION THEY ARE RUNNING.  TELEPHONE COMPANY SHOULD CUT OFF THEIR LINE.

Interesting.  I just got a call too about a position, but they were very specific on the position.  Asked a lot pf pertinant questions regarding the role.  I can't believe they would be asking so many questions about a specific position if they were just looking for telemarketing personal.

This women calls me about a legal position I had to ask her to repeat herself several times because her accent was so thick...It sounded rather scripted and there was a lot of noise in the background first thought was that this was a telemarketing company. I asked to repeat the name of the company that they wanted to place me in and when I s****ed to ask questions about it she just repeated what I said and decided to end the call fast. Sounds like a scam here people...Just **** up on them if they ever call any of you people a***n.....

FYI - Ant and Bee is a reputable Recruiting Firm they specialise in IT, but have a variety of opportunities. Over 80% of their business is with the Provincial Government.  I do not know where you got the idea that they are a telemarketing company.  They do work 9-9 Mon to Fri and 11-9 on Sat and Sun so that they can meet the needs of their candidates as most candidates are working Mon-Fri, 9-5.

Got a call from them this afternoon... On a Sunday!  Story seems to match up. Somthing about finding my resume online and wanted to know if I was still looking...

got a call from this number on my cell, i don't have anything posted on workopolis, just monster. maybe thats where they are coming from???

One guy had obscured resume so they could not figure out who he is and rest just did not call back because they found out that this guy was mistakenly offered wrong job. I received few calls from ant & bee and they usually right on target.I had interview from them today and friend of my worked contract from them so no they not just collection your info to give you telemarketing job.I am software developer myself.

Same here. The guy called my house today and left a message with my husband. He must be kidding. I have a Masters degree and am a senior techncial writer. I am going to pull my resume from Workopolis if that is where this person is sourcing his leads. I didn't call back but searched for the name on the Web - thank God. Obviously he doesn't need a writer so I suspect that he is somehow skimming the phone numbers from Workopolis and only the phone numbers.

These s***bags should be charged and imprisoned for what they do. They call and they mumble, impossible to understand a single word, they lie that they have a job for you. I am going to report these s*** to the police!

Ant & Bee. They should be banned from collecting Workopolis information and then cold calling for a ridiculous job. Waste of time. Someone should complain to Workopolis or have charge Ant & Bee for the waste of time they cause. Had I returned the call, I would have incurred a long distance charge, plus my time, at a time when I am actively seeking employment. Somebody give them a wrap on the knuckles for wasting people's resources.  By the way, they have a website that seems to be just a front without content or password validation.

some guy called me and said i should give him a call back but he was mombling... thanks for letting me know... guess i just save myself some time...

Recv'd call from Ant & Bee (1-416-646-2811)claiming they are calling regarding a job position for me. Upon further questioning, found out they just wanted me to be a telemarketer. Apparently found my resume on Workopolis, but if they had taken the time to actually read my resume, they would have found out I am an Office Administrator and Finance****istant. Gotta love to hate cold calls!
