Dear Revdex.com: I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID [redacted] and have determined that this proposed action would not resolve my complaint For your reference, details of the offer I reviewed appear below The sentence "We strive to offer multiple levels of career opportunities and find the correct individuals for those positions" is flatly untrue, according to [redacted] , the CEO with whom I spoke, and his secretary [redacted] claimed that his company hires for only one entry-level position, that of "events planner." If Pace Events were to admit that they wrote unambiguously information on "various online platforms such as Indeed, [redacted] , and [redacted] to acquire resumes" for exactly one position, and not for "...multiple positions at our firm", I would be satisfied This would also mean that Pace Events would have to admit that their response, sent around June 16, 2015, contained abject lies and gross "misrepresentation" Whether or not it's within Kentucky state law to lie in print and in speech, to collect résumés ostensibly for multiple positions but in reality for a single entry-level "events planner" job, I leave up to a legal authority to decide However, every applicant considering Pace Events, but, most especially, every client considering paying for their services, should know that they are unethical and dishonest, in their record-keeping and claims as to company size and expansion, in ways that could easily be fixed, such as by never claiming to hire for multiple job levels when they in fact hire for a single job with a single job description If Pace Events were to do something as small and simple as post openings for that one and only full and accurate job title and description, for that one and only job for which they're hiring, but claim somewhere within the job posting that it may be possible to be promoted, after a duration of however many weeks or months, such would be less dishonest, and definitely more ethical than putting out a job posting for, say, an administrative assistant job that Pace Events' CEO will tell you has been filled, and Pace Events' secretary/Human Resources Manager will tell you is not even an existing job for which to be hired, upon the applicant's arrival at Pace Events office location I will cast aside euphemisms and say it out

Pace Events aims to provide applicants with a positive and supportive experience each and every time we interact with them. We apologize that your experience with us was not positive. We strive to offer multiple levels of career opportunities and find the correct individuals...

for those positions. We use various online platforms such as Indeed, [redacted], and [redacted] to acquire resumes from applicants for multiple positions at our firm. We strive to find the best fit for each of our various positions and directly contact those whose skills sets would be the best fit. Any confusion caused during the hiring process and during direct contact with our company is something we aim to not have happen. We do apologize for any confusion or misrepresentation during the hiring process and we do wish to always provide a positive experience when applicants interact with our clients and team members.
Our desired resolution would be to show Pace Events operates ethically and legally within the Kentucky state laws.
 
Thank you,
Pace Events

Dear Revdex.com:
I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID [redacted] and have determined that this proposed action would not resolve my complaint.  For your reference, details of the offer I reviewed appear below.
The sentence "We strive to offer multiple levels of career opportunities and find the correct individuals for those positions" is flatly untrue, according to [redacted], the CEO with whom I spoke, and his secretary.  [redacted] claimed that his company hires for only one entry-level position, that of "events planner."  If Pace Events were to admit that they wrote unambiguously false information on "various online platforms such as Indeed, [redacted], and [redacted] to acquire resumes" for exactly one position, and not for "...multiple positions at our firm", I would be satisfied.  This would also mean that Pace Events would have to admit that their response, sent around June 16, 2015, contained abject lies and gross "misrepresentation".
Whether or not it's within Kentucky state law to lie in print and in speech, to collect résumés ostensibly for multiple positions but in reality for a single entry-level "events planner" job, I leave up to a legal authority to decide.  However, every applicant considering Pace Events, but, most especially, every client considering paying for their services, should know that they are unethical and dishonest, in their record-keeping and claims as to company size and expansion, in ways that could easily be fixed, such as by never claiming to hire for multiple job levels when they in fact hire for a single job with a single job description.
If Pace Events were to do something as small and simple as post openings for that one and only full and accurate job title and description, for that one and only job for which they're hiring, but claim somewhere within the job posting that it may be possible to be promoted, after a duration of however many weeks or months, such would be less dishonest, and definitely more ethical than putting out a job posting for, say, an administrative assistant job that Pace Events' CEO will tell you has been filled, and Pace Events' secretary/Human Resources Manager will tell you is not even an existing job for which to be hired, upon the applicant's arrival at Pace Events office location.
I will cast aside euphemisms and say it outright: Pace Events is "expanding", as they sometimes put it, in that they have extremely high turnover and don't want to say so plainly and honestly.  They obfuscate the smallness and precariousness of their financial existence by maintaining a website that hides how tiny and bare-bones their operation is, as well as hides their command structure: admitting it's just a manager and a revolving secretary/HR manager position would scare people away.  If Pace Events were to tell the truth, they wouldn't be able to put out the enormous number of job postings, with varied (and inaccurate) job titles and descriptions, because people would find a much smaller number of job postings, all with the same true and accurate job title and description, just plain unappetizing.  However, if Pace Events is convinced that the only way to get past the early, tiny-operation stage is to convince people they're bigger, more varied, and more full of opportunity than they actually are, to get to the point where they actually will be the company they've described themselves as already being, then that means they think they have to build their company on a foundation of lies, which, in reality, will only mean that they'll feel more comfortable making dishonest claims if their company ever were to pass beyond the fledgling phase.
[redacted], [redacted] (if you're still working there - if you're not, good on you and no hard feelings), rather than throw away your honor and try to found a company upon claims that it's something as multitudinous and diverse as it isn't, know when to cut your losses and try something new in life.  The Louisville, KY legal entity/branch is clearly not working out.  The reality vs. the false possibility you post on places such as Indeed, [redacted], and [redacted] are proof of that.  It's not even your company alone that's at fault (you just got caught and had entertaining screenshots taken of it); those websites are becoming tarnished as they become seen as the battleground for events planning companies, in a competition to win over a pool of applicants for the same "events planner" position.  The company that tries to out-compete the others in raw scale of absolute anti-transparency (i.e. in obfuscation and false claims) is not necessarily the one that will win.
I wish you the best,
[redacted]
