It was a very straightforward and friendly management team. I felt very comfortable and they were very clear on the expectations of the job. I got the sense that a lot of the staff has been there for a very long time and that’s a great sign. I am actually looking forward to begin work.

I applied for the Building Maintenance position as a disabled vet. I had an interview where they told me what was expected. They then scheduled me for another day to fill out new hire paperwork, which gave me the false hope of being hired. I had to complete a background check. I got papers confirming the check was done. I called HR to be polite and see if I could answer any questions, but I could only leave a message. I left one but never got a call back, and I still don't know if I got the job. If this is how they treat disabled vets looking for work, I can only imagine what it would be like if I were hired.
