Full of scam jobs

Full of scam jobs, poorly moderated by Indeed (owns this site), many expired jobs... an overall poor experience for real applicants seeking real jobs. Too easily allows AI bots to flood the applicant pool too.

Scammed

I have been totally scammed by this company. They gave me a job for 300.00 and instead of payment on completion I was asked to open an accoun at credixalliance. Then I was asked to to pay over USD600 and a further 200 (refundable)to credixalliance bank. I was even asked for further payments but I refused. Henceforth they disappeared

Racist/unethical CEOs and practice

Complaint regarding: respect, integrity, cultural competence, appropriate language,
diversity&inclusion, discrimination, racism
Company: Protocall Services, Inc. Mental health service in Portland, Oregon
Address: 5200 S Macadam Ave #310, Portland, OR 97239
Phone: (800) 435-2197
Key Leadership
Phil Evans (CEO) Oregon
Brad Pendergraft (Chief Clinical Officer -(Vancouver ,WA)
Aarti Khullar- (Vice President)-GA
Laura Schaefer ( chief Operating Officer)ME
Tony Krezinski (Director of Sales)MI
Protocall is a remote crisis line that has over 600 accounts they take incoming rollover/after hour
calls for , including statewide local lines that can be reached by dialing 988. My name is Valeria
Gault , and I just started employment August 18, 2025 as a remote crisis counselor. Paragraphs
below details the inhumane and racially targeted exchanges provided by training staff and
leadership.

On August 22, 2025, while on zoom training with Protocall Services . Trainer Jessica Dekker,
(LPC)was explaining the expected calls that would exhibit hate speech/racial slurs. She then
says " you will hear the n-word, and I mean with a hard er".. She then says "thats different then
the n-word that ends in a" . I expressed how unprofessional , culturally insensitive, inappropriate
and a borderline racial statement. She then provided she got the advice from leadership to say
this in training and that, she has been getting the feedback I provided for years. She stated all
they can do is keep taking feedback. I explained saying "racial slurs/hate speech" encompasses
it all and that the training needs to be revamped. She stated the n-word with an "a" is a cultural
term of endearment. I provided either form of the slur is not acceptable at the workplace or from
callers.
She nearly spelt the word out and tried to differentiate the slurs and saying one was acceptable.

On 9/1/2025 on Zoom at approximately 2:30pm, CEO of Protocol Services Phil Evans (out of
Oregon, where the company is based) and Chief Clinical Officer Brad Pendergraft
I was left feeling violated, racially targeted, and treated unjustly. I have since then dealing with
daily stress, depression, anxiety and feelings of unworthiness. I have had nervousness, heart

palpitations. My concern is leadership admitting and allowing verbiage. The company stands on
mental health service to all communities/populations, yet does not display this
It has made me question wage inequality, promotion barriers, lower morale and an overall
healthy work environment.
The company lacks diversity, there are over 20 leadership and management positions, that
include only one person that is not caucasian. cultural competence, respect and integrity as it
pertains to employ

WORST app for sponsorship visa

WORST app for sponsorship visa, say they have jobs that offer visa sponsorships yet when you look at every job they do not offer it. Do not waste your time if you are looking for a sponsorship visa.

SimplyHired searches return false positives in fields and industries that have no correlation with what one is searching for.

I have, on at least two occasions informed them that their system is returning false positives.

I program using Assembly language. This has been around since at least 1964 with the S/360 from IBM.
Here is part of one of my emails:

"assembly language" is what I am searching for. Can you please tell me how these are matches:

Field Vehicle Maintenance Supervisor
Substation Engineering Lead
Financial Analyst
Virtual Educational ASL Interpreter (Missouri Certified)

And I get this back as the answer (boiler plate):

Our search is a keyword search. This means that when you enter multiple words without quotation marks, the search will return results with job listings that contain all of those words in either the job title or description. Those words may not necessarily appear together in the job listing.

I may as well talk to a wall.

Disfunctional

Several times, I have had to re-enter my job searches. Today, all my job searches are there, but Simply Hired states that this web page doesn't exist, or it has moved. WTF!!!

I listen very well while handling escalations well. Customer Service or anything with client services answering questions and directing customers assisting them in their everyday needs regarding whatever services they are invested in is what I strive to provide to every customer however difficult an obstacle may be. Contact me with remote Customer Service jobs. I am ready for long term representative employment with all the appropriate equipment here in my home office. I was excited to have found your site, yet I could not apply. You have my permission to contact me.

Unprofessional and intrusive recruitment tactics

I’ve never signed up with SimplyHired, yet I received a random SMS from one of their recruiters on a weekend. To make it worse, it was a group message with other people’s numbers visible. No idea how they got my number, and I certainly didn’t give permission to be contacted. Completely unprofessional and a privacy concern.
