202-289-9898

They called me last night around 7 pm twice and then around lunchtime today. They said its for a job that I applied to online. I did a search by the name of 'TRG Field Solutions' and found that they try to offer people jobs on the phone.

have recieved 6 calls from this number, they have never left a message.  Seems like the days I update my resume on CareerBuilder the more calls that come from this number...

I have received this number a few times on my cell phone this week and last week. At one point, they rang me at 10:30 at night! I answered the call this time, and a man asked to speak to me. He sounded like he was calling from a busy call centre somewhere in the Middle East (i'm not trying to offend anyone... please accept my apologies... he sounded Middle Eastern). He said he saw my "resumeh" on hotjobs and wanted to know if I was still looking for a job. I didn't tell him right away who I was. he just kept asking for me and saying he's calling from TIG. Or T something G, a recruitment agency. I asked where he was located, after "confirming" my first name. He said in Washington. So, I asked 'It's a recruitment agency?" and he said yes, in Washington. I told him I'm not interested and to stop calling me, because he's called before. He said this was the first time we've spoken and he's called; I replied that the number keeps coming up on my caller ID. and I hung up.

Just got the call from this number, Loud, and busy call center..re: found my resume on Hotjobs..wow, now they are trying to scam through employment website???????

I just had the same exact call like that today and he does sound Middle Eastern, now I'm going to keep on eye on that. But my cell phone was getting static and I couldn't hear him that clear so he hurried up an get back to me soon.

ripofffffffffffff- just hang up

I just got the same call from the same guy. I said "you've got the wrong number" and he said "This is the wrong number?" and i hung up. I just updated my resume on Monster.com yesterday.

I received so many calls rfom this number. They said they are from TIG. they said they found my resume in careerbuilder.com. right. I dont remember I every applied to this company or even their name. Ignore this call! scam..they said thay have office in NY...but when i went to their website..they dont hv office in NY !!!! liar.

I just received a call from these people.  The caller said he obtained my information from Careerbuilder and wanted to know if I was still looking for a job.  He said that he needed to know my location to know which job he could offer me.  I gave him my location, and he said that he could offer me a sales job with AT&T.  I told him that I am not looking for sales jobs.

It sounded like he was calling from a large noisy call-center.  I asked him not to call me again.

A word of advice:  When you post on Careerbuilder or other job sites - only use a generic email address as the contact info.  I typically register my name as "confidential confidential" and my phone number as "000-000-0000"  Then I only give out my "job hunting email address," which is a secret address I only use for job hunting and I have the mail from the address forwarded to my real email address.


I was shocked these people had my real name and contact info, but then I realized that I uploaded the wrong resume - it had my full contact info on it, instead of just the "job hunting email address."

i just recvd a call from the same number, didn't pick up, no voicemail. and i was on careerbuilder yesterday, its really sad they sell out our info to 3rd parties.

Got a call on Saturday and another one today. The group is called "The Resource Group" and their website is www.trgworld.com.

I find it quite interesting that a "recruiting" company doesn't leave a message for people to call back, which in turn, could be a step closer to helping them fulfill some of the openings for their customers. I'm sure my calls are a result of recent visits to CareerBuilder.

I figured this was a b.s. call...just came up on my caller i.d., and i dont answer numbers i dont recognize, for this reason..left no message, consistent with the comments above mine. all i did was put the phone number in the browser and poof...here i am...damn these [***]!!

I did one better than simply answer the call, I actually showed up for the interview~ and even did a day of observation with the company.  Coincidentally today is supposed to be my very first day, but after coming to my senses I've decided to pass on the opportunity.  

The call: Just like described the person on the phone was calling from a busy call center and after asking a few general questions, he then congratulated me on "getting the job".  That immediately sent a red flag my way..lol  He told me to bring two forms of I.D then gave me the address to a business office in New York.

First day: So I arrive and in the empty huge office there are about 60 other people.  The lady running the interview introduces herself and then right there in front of everyone conducts a 20-second interview going from person to person inquirign as to why you think you would be a good fit.  Nevermind that everyone is confused and doesn't even really know what the job entails.  When it's all said and done she announces she will call later to let you know if they are interested.  Then you will do a full day observations to see if this is a job you can see yourself doing.

Day of Observation:  The guy I was sent out with couldn't wait to tell me how much he hated the company.  He went on about how they lie, refuse to pay you what's owed, and explained that no matter what they tell you, the job is 100% commission.  He said don't bother being sick for a week~ you won't get paid.  During the day he caught the subway to Brooklyn and started going up and down the street from business to business.  "I'm your local Verizon rep and we've been told that due to unauthorized calls on your bill we've been approved to offer you a discount to keep you as a customer".  That was his sales pitch and his reply time after time was, "NO, NO, NO, NO, NO, NO, NO, NO, Yes"  After a full six hours of work he did finally get a sale for $130.00.  

Decision: It IS a real company.  It is 100% commission.  They do offer benefits.  But it's definitely not a job for most people, not even most sales people.  Make your own decision, but me personally, I'm going to politely pass.

I worked for TRG in WV (they had/have a Verizon FiOS contract).  That place is absolutely insane.  The benefits?  Hah!  You're better off just saving your money & going to the doctor yourself.  My SO did not get paid for the 1st week out on the floor because his ID was screwed up.  It took him over a month to get that week's pay.  My first paycheck just disappeared.  THAT took almost 2 weeks to get.

You are constantly screamed at by supervisors who expect that you know EVERYTHING about the service.  Nevermind that their training was a joke!  I would GLADLY go through the training again, it was completely worthless.  $11 an hour for doing absolutely nothing?  Sure!!!  They instilled fear in their employees.  Everyday it was "OMG, we are about to lose the contract because we suck.  We will be out of jobs!!!"  They suspended one guy for doing something that he was NEVER told in training or the few weeks out on the floor.  He simply gave the password to a family member of an account holder.

I will probably work at McDonald's before I will EVER go back to that god forsaken place!

It is owned by a [***] [***]
