The staff here are awfully disrespectful, rude, and threatening. I will say, though, that the gym is very nice. The place is huge and has plenty of exercise equipment. However, I came in for an interview for a personal trainer position that was set up with a recruiter named David Hordo who failed to mention that I needed to bring my resume and personal trainer certificate to the interview, despite the fact they had both on file from when I applied for the position online. I spoke with my current employer, who I also do personal training for, and she recommended I wear a tank top and training like attire to show that I am an in-shape and healthy individual. I have never had a problem doing this for personal training interviews as I assume the hiring managers appreciate seeing someone who is muscular and well-framed. When I came into this location, however, I was told that the interviewer, Jack, would not be available for another fifteen minutes. That turned into twenty. Then I was told that my workout attire was not appropriate for the interview despite the fact that a person who came in for an interview after me was wearing regular clothes and sat down for an interview immediately. Then I was told to go home and come back tomorrow with interview appropriate clothes. Now, granted, if this was an office job, I would have worn a dress shirt, tie, etc. Since this is a personal training job, and my previous bosses have expected me to dress for the part, I was pretty upset that I was being turned down for an interview when I had driven 10 miles to just come out to the gym. The manager of the place who I had been talking to asked me if I was upset even though he was the one who was visibly upset. As I left, he came outside with another employee who worked there looking around as if they were looking to confront me. Out of all the job interviews I've had, this is probably the worst I've ever been too and I would strongly discourage anyone from supporting this place until they clean up staff. I even saw a girl at the front desk ignore a gym member who was complaining about the cleanliness of the gym. This place is a definite 1 out of 5.
