Question about the NCSA...

[cyagoball]

I am sure it has probably been discussed on here before, but I did not see it...What is the feedback on the NCSA, or any of these paid recruiting firms for that matter? It seemed to be a bit of a scam just in talking to the guy and I see completely polarizing views when I did some checking on the web. Just curious as to some of your thoughts or experiences...Seems pretty spendy

Thanks

Skip it.

Check out the thread below in this section about "If I had to do it all over again".....lots of good recruiting stuff in there. Avoid the service you are talking about....learn how to do it on your own and you will get better results. You get out of it what you put into it. JMO
