I am very sorry for the people who paid the expensive fee and got nothing. I just got the hell out there.
When I look back it's almost laughable. I had a meetings with a guy in his late 50's (I think).
He said I was getting paid too low (that was true) and I would need a high paying job because I wasn't married to a doctor...
He said welcome to "the old boys network" and showed me a list of their "clients" like: Maclean's, labatt, Nestle, Procter & Gamble and said I could get a management position in one of those even I have never been one before. He said nobody has ever left unsatisfied from BHA. I was their product and they would re-package myself to look like a manager material. He talked and talked and even talked more. It took almost 2 hours. I was tired and getting weak...
Finally at the very end of the meeting the he told me about the fee "the retainer". I must have looked very poor because the he asked me to pay $2950 Tax by visa card. The cheapest amount I have read so far in this page.
Now I can say "what was I thinking??? " but I was almost believing the guy when I was in the room with the bad taste art on the wall and Montblanc pens on the desk. The brochure was poorly designed so was the website, I should have known better.
I saw many people come and go in the office while I was there. Has anybody found a dream job through BHA? I don't think BHA is a 100% rip-off company (or is it?) but I couldn't find a webpage saying anything good about BHA except their own website...
