a local recruiting agent who agreed to facilitate my visa and job application process for a security guard job. He demanded $1,500 in recruitment fees…
when he handed me my paperwork hours before my departure, I discovered my visa and employment contract were for a cleaning position…
My new company made it a point to inform me that they themselves never give workers the permission to change jobs…
