"I started working here in October of 2013. I left my stable contract position at A&E Networks for the contract to hire position here. After a month I was told on Nov. 26 after working a full day I was told by my recruiter that they were re-hiring the person I left. I wasn't given all the tools to perform the job correctly (admin rights and other troubleshooting permissions) then laid off unexpectedly, but company and no support from recruiter either."
