But I'm writing to warn you DON'T apply with agency
Taking me $3500 sgd and leaving me a rejection letter.
The whole process is dam*n ridiculous:
- Firstly, They asked me to make full payment before they did anything.
- First 2 weeks, they ask me to prepare whole documents for PR and they never check or review.
- 3rd week, the writer from an Indian vendor sent me a template cover letter, messy from beginning to the end, even mistaking my occupations and job scopes.
( No offense to anyone, I think a lot of Indians have better English proficiency than Chinese like me, until I met this bloody writer)
- 4th week, I spent my whole week revising the shi*t cover letter, like re-writing the whole thing.
- 5th week, I applied with them
-In the following 6 months, they don't give me shit, even I emailed them asking about changing job issues.
-Last month I changed my job, got rejected last week.
I emailed them to ask about appealing or re-application. NO reply(even automatic reply) until I got a bit angry and called them.
- Yesterday they sent me a template email and appealing template letter with ZERO single manual input word.
That's the end of story.
I know I seems a bit stupid.
The bloody agency put a lot of money on Google ad and my mom found it. I believe the second big cost is hiring good-looking salespeople instead of so-called experts.
Both of us were desperate, as I was faced with troubles getting dream jobs due to permits(or maybe they just don't think I'm worthy), my mom was so lonely that she wanted to have long-term pass to visit me.
In the end my mom made the payment for me with her own money. The result is very frustrating.
I feel so sad, regretful, angry and guilty.
I hope this post can be viewed by those who had thought of applying with agency.
THEY ARE JUST SHI*T.
