"Careers Advice" and PCS Executive
Let's just get this off my chest. I am fed up with 'careers advice'
spam and it is all coming from the same place but using different
domain names.
Since registering with PCS Executive I have had a constant dribble of
spam emails offering pay-for careers advice. I have tried
unregistering but that is ignored. They have been spamming me for a
few years. I reckon PCS Executive only exists as a means to capture
unwilling potential customers for their "rewrite your CV for £300"
activities.
These people are all peeing in the same bucket:
PCS Executive 0113 252 3070 / 0845 847 6199
PCS Client Services
www.pcsexecutive.com
Career World 0113 252 3070 / 0845 847 6199
1 Church Court, Church Way, Leeds
Part of Barkers Norman Broadbent plc
* Spammers *
Career Analysis 0845 847 6199

career-analysis.co.uk
career-analysis.com

CW Consulting 0845 847 6199
1 Church Court, Church Way
cw-consulting.co.uk
and sharing the same address and so probably all part of it too:
Exec2Exec
1 Church Court, Church Way, Leeds
Have I missed any?
One day I try to get to the bottom of these ones and see if they are
related too:

Re:"Careers Advice" and PCS Executive
this company is a total fraud.
they charged my GBP 3700 for career advise and am sure are doing the same
with unsuspecting vulnerable candidates.
we must try and stop this company from having a free hand and cheating -
they are equivalent of rouge traders of the career advisors.
for over 12 months now they have been "providing a service" which is
appalling. they are "stealing" money...pls do some thing...
anyonce considering them - pls be aware. you will be cheated and find that
you haven't got anyting worthwhile for the money you spend.
my sincere advise is to do it yourself. don't engage PCS executive

Re:"Careers Advice" and PCS Executive
In response to this - if you wish to unsubscribe from the PCS Executive
mailings, simply respond to the email with the word "unsubscribe" in the
subject line. You will then be unsubscribed
None of the following companies are linked to us in any way:
mctrecruitment.com
application-centre.com
cv-wizard.com
management-skills-uk.co.uk
mctinternational.com
personalrecruiter.co.uk
skillstrainuk.com
skills-train.com
Yes - we have different brands registered at the same address - you wouldn't
expect all chocolate bars to have the same name - hence Mars Bar, Twix etc,
so our career management brands which cater for different client needs have
different brands too
There's nothing wrong with this
I trust this answers your question

Re:"Careers Advice" and PCS Executive
These guys are a complete fraud, sadlty a friend has recently been caught out by them.It cost him approx £4k... for this he was given the following advice -
1. Yuor CV looks very good, no need to modift that.
2. Register at as many on-line job boards as possible and apply for anything that moves.
3. They give you copious lists of so called "agencies" and "head hunters" .. no email addresses, just addresses and tell you to WRITE to them with your CV and cover letter .... wow , back to the 80's , who does business this way any more. these are lists obviously compiled NOT based on knowledge but pulling peoples names and addresses off the web or telephone books.
4. They start with weekly meetings and after the 1st month more you to monthly ones. The format of the meeting is to review where you have replied and to tell you to keep trying.
Of the 150 or so letter he sent, not one single reply or acknowledgement.
The meetings at PCS got shorter and shorter.
Eventually he complained and spoke to a "senior" guy .. this senior guy gave hime names and phone numbers of "personal contacts" of his. My friend tried , not one of them knew who the pcs guy was !
These guys mis-sell and mis-sell big time. Beware that what they say they do not repeat in their contracts you sign. during your pre-signature meet, they GUARANTEE to work tirelessly on your behalf and will continue to do so until you get a job. The reality is that all they give you are lists of names/addresses, and your contract expires after 1 year !
These guys are really bad ... they feed on fear and the basic principle of "to get a good job you need to invest in expert advice" .... twaddle !
Avoid them like the plague !
