The fun (NOT) tower building was conducted by two Ingeus advisors as they watched to see what 2 out of the 15/20 of us who turned up there, were suitable to be passed onto Asda, we were even given a bag of sweets for each group as if building crap out of bright coloured straws and plastic cups and paper wasn't childish enough....they even rewarded us like kids too.

I have been with Ingeus Newcastle for just over a year, i am onto my 6th advisor...one i had twice, and not one of them has done anything what so ever to help me find work, i did get a temp job xmas 2011 that lasted 6weeks i found the job, i applied and got it, yet my 1st advisor took all the credit , she would also look for jobs for herself during my 1 on 1s with her, and most weeks she would look through my job tracker i had to write and pick out any jobs i found that her other clients would like, so infact i was job searching for her clients too, the whole thing is a waste of time, i have been hassled by non english men to go out with them as you have to sit so close to each other at the PCs. Was shipped off to Gateshead branch for 18weeks as was told it was the next step a more advanced intense course....sat in room looked on PCs for 18 weeks,some of those weeks were in summer hols when my kid was off school, took him with me and was sent out the building as was told my kid wasn't allowed in building as it was too dangerous as some of the clients had just got out of prison for some nasty crimes (yet still they wanted to see me during school hols) then after 18wks shipped back to Newcastle, just last week was told to go in to apply for a job with Asda, we were all put in a room split into 3 teams and given 20mins to build the tallest tower out of plastic cups, paper and straws....i'm 37 years old and it was a joke, we were sent home straight after. i was there today for 2hour job searh on the PCs (which i have told them i can do at home and do) no jobs, it is so degrading and a total waste of time.
