International boundaries

This past November 2012 I came upon the ad from American Careers. It requested that I call a phone number & doing so, a prompted message stated that if you provide American Careers with eight pieces of information, you would strongly have an opportunity to work at an airport of your choice. They promised to contact you & work out the procedures etc ... They even stated that the purchasing fee was refundable & guaranteed in writing.
I was under the impression that I would receive correspondance with in a week since they requested for my e-mail address & home address etc ... It is now quickly approaching two weeks & I felt that I needed to investigate on my own.
I am really upset to discover that someone calling themselves a career company would fraud so many people when there is an unemployment epidemic! It is my hope that these people get caught by the Government & the money would be refunded to the people that have been mislead.

  • Roger,

    I'm a Career Counselor at American Careers (NYC offices).
    For the doubters out there, I must say sorry for any confusion or misconceptions about us, but we certainly are NOT a scam. I've been here for 6 yrs. Indeed, I'm very happy with the results I have personally obtained from the many Applicants I've assisted to gain employment at various airports/airlines across the USA. Success stories
    with many different types of Positions, at varying pay rates, anywhere from $14 to $22 / hour.

    Regarding our Service, we simply assist Applicants obtain employment through the information that we email/mail them to get them started with the Application Process. We then follow up with phone support via our Career Counselors to assist them in every aspect of the Application Process (Application, Resume, Cover Letters, Thank You Letters,
    Interviewing Techniques, etc) through our Airline Career Development Guide & our Airline Hiring Update, which includes current listings of Airline Positions & descriptions which the Applicant may then apply for at various Airlines. We will attempt to obtain as many
    interviews for the Applicant as we possibly can. The $39 one-time fee we charge is refundable in the event we are unable to obtain employment for the Applicant. Details are included in the paperwork the Applicant receives. This is a vast amount of information & assistance which could potentially require many hours to perform individually. This Service will soon be available to Applicants via a new website now under construction:

    http://www.AmericanCareersJobs.com

    We have many success stories here with regard to Applicants who have taken the time & effort to read / follow the instructions listed in our Program, and have indeed obtained employment at various Airports across the USA. Obtaining employment takes time and effort.

  • Roger,

    Please call (718)-690-7056 and give me your information. I want to get this problem solved for you. After we receive your information at our processing center in Baltimore, MD it takes about 7 days. If you provided us with an email, you should have received an email with your applicant id #. At that point, you should read over the information and then you should contact American Careers. Again, please give me a call so that I can solve this problem for you.

    God Bless,

    Yvonne Foxworth
