    It works sometimes. I find a lot of HR offices and recruiters won't take the time to check it. That's why I have current employees as some of my references. While the company won't say anything, there's nothing stopping a reference from verbally confirming it.

    Alice wasn't attempting to pull a scam. It was the temp service I had used or their 3rd party system they use for this purpose. If you noticed further in that post, you would have seen where I found a way around that without Millis or me having to pay for any of that and getting my approval letter by email later that day. Thank you DB for help in the clarification on that also. Apparently Millis is coming across this alot as to why they are asking for other forms of proof now, at least that was my experience with Craig in April of this year. My experience with Alice happened around October of last year. Big difference in time and possibly a learning experience for the company on the trouble potential trainees are having I assume.

    It's A1 Employment, in Opelika, AL. I think they're just trying to squeeze every penny they can out of people. But it was January and March of this year so I'm not bsure the W2 would be available through the IRS yet. I'm trying to get started as soon as I can, however, this is a huge roadblack, I've tried to call them several different times, and I get the same answer each time, "Pay $25 and have Millis contact us, and it would take 3-5 days to get it to them." That's absolute bull crap, I they should at least have some sort of checkstub available for me still since it was so recent.

    I bet this would be a great opportunity for class action lawsuit attorney, but they will never hear of it unless someone (w/ a claim) contacts them. <---Lawyers don't look for you here, they busy chasing ambulance's J/K.

    This HR company may have found the best way to make money legally is through extorting the employee for their own records? I wouldn't accept it! and hope you won't either. The OOIDA is a good place to start for legal reference

    Best of luck!

    Did you contact your local Department of Labor? They should be able to help you one way or another. Just let them know it will unemployment if you don't get hired. They may even be able to pull a work history/verification for you. Use all possible resources.........and DOL is one of them.

    I didn't know that either, thanks for the tip. I'll contact DOL as soon as possible. But if things can't get worse, Alice at Millis has stopped answering my calls. I guess she thinks I'm playing some sort of game or something. This is really screwing me over.

    If you need to try another recruiter. I don't think she is doing it on purpose. Maybe one of the company drivers can offer some advice. Sometimes she was hard for me to reach also.

    Again... If this is something you really wan to do, pay the $25 ... If you don think this is worth $25, then you shouldn't consider driving an figure out plan B. I can't believe how much posting this thread has gotten.

    Really? I'm ##### pissed for the driver! Its been a few years since my last resume, but if they ask me or my prospective Co. for money... OMG is all I should say, the rest of comments would land me in jail.

    Yes, Solo Seat is right, pay the money. But document everything and get your money back anyway you can.
