Angard Staffing Solutions - more problems than solutions

Post by contentiousmoi »

List of Angard failures:

Failed to email me to advise what documents would be required at the interview etc.
Set my status on the Royal Mail website to having agreed a start date before I or anyone else had been interviewed.
Failed to carry out the required security check on myself and some 30-40 other people on the shift resulting in our being laid off after one shift, despite having had six weeks to do so.
Sent people to the wrong depot.
Sent security badges to the wrong depot.
Failed to provide any contact deals until a website was set up (this week I believe)

The contact number we were given for Angard on completion of one shift in order to expedite the security clearance results in a recorded message saying that they are unable to answer the phone due to the volume of calls. This has lasted for several hours and expect will last indefinitely.

Obviously operating a business this way in a commercial environment would quickly result in its closure.
