Appointment with Ajilon today

Post #25,439 by nking 1/24/02 9:05:56 AM Reply	Appointment with Ajilon today they lady was supposed to send me directions in email. I never got the email. She apparently didn't send it. I have an interview in one hour. All the information was supposed to be sent in email, directions to office, etc. This is not good. I have a bad feeling about this. :( "Will code Visual BASIC for cash."

The position I applyed for required expert level knowledge of DB2, which I didn't have. They didn't talk about this on the description of the job, and the client had just mentioned it to them.

I had a recruiter omit to tell me who I was seeing, and another recruiter send me to the wrong addess on two separate occasions. 2. If they've mentioned DB2 this late in the game, then the recruiter will probably try their hardest to get the client to see you anyway. Wade.
