Rated 1 out of 5 stars

Avoid at all costs.

One thing I hate more than anything, is when you get an email saying "I've tried calling you just now, but couldn't get through." - It's a mobile, with excellent signal, I know for a fact you haven't called!!
I made the mistake of putting a CV in for a job they had advertised. Next thing I know, I'm getting terms notice and GDPR emails from them, with terms listing things that I would certainly never agree to.

Avoid this company like the plague!

Avoid using Advantage Resourcing at all…

Avoid using Advantage Resourcing at all costs, don't work or find work through this terrible recuritment company. Disgusting and disgraceful company. Don't join these lot. Awful company to work for. They did not advertise the role at Advanced properly. Gave rude responses and acted like they had no clue what was going on at Advanced but knew full well. Parmeet Singh of Advanced is on about meeting expectations like he said to previous staff. No help or support was provided. The staff are either on sick leave or they just quit. There was no remote in software available to support NHS users and the ticketing system they had in place is perhaps the most awful one you will ever see. Waste of space. Go say that to the whole team what you said to me about lateness and meeting expectations, and if you don't you will give me notice. I ain't got no kids to feed. Did you forget I was a contractor? And that I could leave anytime? That's what I did, I called Parmeet back and told him who do I hand my notice in. Then I got up and walked out. They had this skinny lady waiting and she followed me out the building. They also had one guy with a beard and black t shirt on who stamped his foot and gave me an aggregated and aggressive look the week before as I left the building. What's the point of this ?

They don't give annual leave they said but I have a recorded conversation with PayStream who said annual leave is provided. Advanced are a joke company with joke clueless nitpicky managers.

I would not recommend or advise anyone to use or work at Advanced. They do not care about their own staff let alone customers. However they had the air conditioning on at random times blowing cold air when there has just been a change in weather. A bit odd this came on and I felt it was done on purpose to get people sick. The only thing Advanced about this place is their awful service.

They only want money off the client without offering a basic decent service.

When I called the Prince's trust and told them what happened to me and that your advocate is promoting Prince's trust in their awful signatures at Advanced, she was like they are a partner. I felt as if she already knew what was happening there with the bullying, victimisation and racism.

I feel like I was treated in such an ill manner because of my Asian Bangladeshi background and my religious belief of Islam. You know where to find me.

Robin McWilliams said he wanted me to point out instances when I have done so already. Where does it say in the job description of a customer service lead, job advert or any written documentation that Advanced threaten employees with notice ? I am not sure if it due to the fact that I'm an Asian Bangladeshi and Muslim from the hood there's a need for a culture of bullying and victimisation against me. What planet are Advanced and certain employers such as Birmingham City University and University college Birmingham living in ? The fantasy will only last so long before the truth all comes out. As I've said to them I don't care and I have nothing to hide.

Update - I emailed them again and copied in their so called senior management who it appears have got nothing better to do. Still have not responded. They then tried to get some whack solicitors firm to send me some threating letter. It felt like harrasment. I contacted the said solicitors firm regarding their letter which contained false accusations and have not heard back. Absolutely shocking.
