Prolific Minds

Prolific Minds has successfully supported TalentWave's MSP efforts with Intuit, Digital Insight and NCR. I highly recommend them for contingent and FTE needs.

BAIT AND SWITCH TACTICS! STAY AWAY!! These people use bait and switch tactics. They agree to a pay you ask and then after a successful interview with client they come back and say they cannot pay that amount and ask you to reduce your pay. When confronted they say that the client has asked them to reduce the pay and they cannot work with low margins. STAY AWAY!!. A person from Prolific Minds inc, cupertino named sarath (working from banglore, india office) approached me for a position they have open with their client cloudcar in mountainview. They agreed to the pay I was expecting but did not send me any pay rate confirmation. I had to insist that they send me a rate confirmation by email and they did. I attended the interview and got selected and now another person named Vasanth (also from banglore, india office) who says he is the manager calls me saying that interview went well and client wants me on the job but there is a problem with the pay. He kept giving me names of other people who are willing to work at 35% less pay than mine and how if I don't agree then the job will go to the other people. I told him he is wasting my time and he should not renegotiate the pay and he says that the client has been pushing for lower pay. He kept telling lie after lie and was highly inconsistent in his reasons for lowering my pay. I decided not to deal with these crooks anymore and didn't take the job. They wasted my time and effort. Their strategy is that once the candidate gets selected for a job then he would take the job even if they heavily reduce the pay since he may not want to loose the job. They try to capitalize on any weakness you show in your need for a job. STAY AWAY FROM THESE CROOKS!!
