My interview at Express Employment Professionals in Richmond was incredibly disappointing. I met with Tracy Dempsey, the owner, who kept me there for about two and a half hours, mostly talking about her own life. It felt more like a therapy session than a job interview. She went on about her personal, religious, and political views—none of which were appropriate or relevant.
They claim jobs are assigned on a first-call basis, but from what I saw, hiring depends on who the owner likes, not on qualifications or fairness. I wasn’t offered anything in the end, despite sitting through all of it.
I left feeling drained and disrespected. This did not feel like a professional staffing agency. It felt like a gatekeeping operation run by someone more interested in control than helping people. Easily the most frustrating interview I’ve ever had.
