So is SnagAJob.com Legit or a Scam?
First and foremost, many of the jobs available on SnagAJob.com are legitimate, and they may have helped connect members with them. But you’ll also notice that on their list of available jobs, there are many jobs offered from online opportunities like paid survey companies.
Most people that are signing up at an online job database are looking for more traditional jobs that come with a steady paycheck, as opposed to online business or supplemental income opportunities. If you receive one of these offers after signing up with SnagAJob.com, make sure to investigate the company before investing any money.
In addition, according to their Full Privacy Policy, they provide your contact information to partner companies and third party companies in order to contact you with advertisements or special offers they think you might be interested in based on your site activity.
If you do not want to be contacted by these companies, you can try to change your Snag a Job profile to more accurately reflect the types of emails you would like to receive, but you may also choose to set up a separate email account to deal with the communication you receive from them.
They are overly aggressive until you sign the contract and then you can NOT get a phone call back from them no matter what time/day you call them or how many messages you leave. (I have been trying for 3 weeks now)
The quality of the employee has been average, but the quality assurance tests that they use has NO physiological basis to it and does not truly reflect the type of employee that you are going to get. We have a high turnover business and have found this service to not change our turnover rate or quality of employee in the slightest. We are going back to craigslist to find employee's (not great, but at least it was free)
World Networking Services International. They did the entire interview on line and of coarse they hired me, they then sent me money, which they wanted me to used 2 different Western Union locations. After contacting my bank and they researched the company and found the ck they sent was bogus. Very disappointed but yet relieved that I didnt follow thru and wire the money. Anyone getting a email with the named David Benitod as the contact STAY AWAY. he is a scam artist.
Don't bother with it.
This is illegal. I don't know if it's a scam or not but they ask for way too much information. It makes me suspect that this is a site that is only there to steal my personal information. BEWARE!

I've written to them. But I am also thinking of contacting the ACLU.
