Job DuckReviews of jobduck.com

I have been working with Job duck for nine months already, and I couldn't be happier. I am from Mexico, and contrary to what the first comment I read said; the salary I am earning here is far higher than the salary I could get in other companies. I am an engineer, and the best jobs I could apply for were paying half of what I am earning a month here at Job Duck. Plus, I had to commute. Our co-founders are kind and honest people who funded a business where both parties could be happy. Although I haven't been here for long, it upsets me to read offenses to our founders when people do not know the whole background story. The application process is laborious, but it is worth it. You could work in a company that has a great company culture, competitive salary, and healthy work environment. Nevertheless, you are the only one who can decide whether we are legit or not. If you meet our job description, we are eager to know you, and we will give you a legit job once you have passed each stage of our process. We encourage you to apply, read our job description carefully and check out our application process. The truth is that people make everything we do possible. Accordingly, if you are the incredible person we are looking for, please apply. We need you.

BEWARE OF FRAUDULENT SCHEME ONLINE RECRUITMENT Before I even begin explaining what happened to me, I want people to know this company takes advantage of people. I want to warn people against this company because it is borderline slavery. But they want to pass themselves off as the most incredible place to work for, investing in advertisements and fake comments. These people put you through a ridiculously grueling, lengthy (weeks/month) interview process where it is OBVIOUS they are looking for people with extraordinary admin/marketing talent and perfect knowledge of the English language, written and spoken, to work remotely for ONLY big US COMPANIES and for ONLY $4 US an hour!!! In the States, a marketing or admin assistant can cost them as much as $45/hour so it is understandable a company needs to save money. But the point is, even though the US company will save a lot, they definitely are NOT paying anywhere near $4/hour. It is JOB DUCK that earns the REAL money, taking advantage of people needing work. In Mexico and SA a cleaning lady earns more. So do people workin in a McDonalds. But the point is, Job Duck recruits the many expats that are now living in Mexico and South America. I researched this company, and found out a mexican and american founded Job Duck with the sole purpose to fill their pockets taking advantage of people. I even have strong doubts that have the job offers are bogus. My personal experience was, in a nutshell, that I wasted six weeks of my time for nothing. I applied for a position and went through a ridiculously elaborated test even BEFORE sending a CV. (ok... understandable since it is all online, and therefore difficult to see who is on the other side). There are ALL these steps and tests to do (language, personality, actual pics of you holding the name of their company-it is working online...who cares what you look like??? - Only the qualifications are important, right?... In any case, they get back to you with so much delay, it takes like two weeks just to get through this. AND I had to solicit SEVERAL times if they actually received my CV and test results... well I the girl I dealt with did was definitely anything but bright or efficient and spoke very poorly in English. Anyway, things move on and they finally give me an online interview via Zoom (I believe it was to be the last or second-last step)....A MONTH LATER! Noted on my calendar, I connect on Zoom at the hour of the interview (for which I NEVER received a link) but all they had to do is search my name, I was connected. three to five minutes later, not seeing anyone, I immediately contacted the whatsap number I was given AND wrote an email to that contact "fool of a girl" that I had to deal with, to ask what was happening. I kept receiving vague messages (I have copies of all these emails and messages) only to hear that I lost my chance. When asked when it could be rescheduled they would not. Apparently they made a mistake, were no longer interested. I was really angry. Even IF they were not interested anymore (which doesn't make much sense since I am fluent in 4 languages and have more than 8 years of international experience in admin/marketing work), WHY not advise me since they had a month? Why leave me hanging? They are looking for PROFESSIONALS and THEY are ANYTHING BUT PROFESSIONAL. Even the "fool's" supervisor got in touch with me, (her english, by the way, so bad one cannot understand a word she says) and only confirmed saying she was sorry she made me waste 5 weeks of my time. I am an honest, talented and hard working person who needs to work. It is disgusting how there are so many dishonest people taking advantage of situations and other people.
