Truck Driver In A Hopeless Situation
A truck driver, seeking to work in Europe, got in touch with a recruiting firm that promised to secure him a job even though he had no English communication skills. The agency assured him that language skills were not a concern and that they would take care of everything. After this, the driver underwent an interview with the European Logistics Company, but his zero language skills resulted in rejection from the company. Upon learning about his rejection, the recruiting agency, however, reassured him that they would get him hired by the same company and ensure he gave another interview. Without the knowledge of the driver, the agency arranged for a person with good English skills to give the interview on his behalf. As a result of which, the driver’s work permit was approved, and he was sent to Europe. Upon arriving in Europe, the driver was rejected on the spot by the client during his test. Disappointed and shocked, the driver contacted the recruitment agency, which had already collected the service fees from him, and then demanded an extra 2,000 EU to relocate the driver to Poland. The driver was left with no choice but to pay a heavy amount to move to Poland, where he unfortunately, became stranded and was forced to take illicit occupations to survive.
“I was misled and cheated by the recruitment agency. I am sharing this story because what I went through, I don’t want others to suffer like me.” – Truck Driver
