Review / Warning: ********* Hiring Experience with Omtalent (Gadi), Talenty (David), and Athennian (Manager Andrew, HR Specialist Arti)

Review / Warning: ********* Hiring Experience with Omtalent (Gadi), Talenty (David), and Athennian (Manager Andrew, HR Specialist Arti) I am sharing this review to caution job seekers especially those pursuing remote or international roles about my disappointing experience with Omtalent (recruiter Gadi), Talenty (recruiter David), and their client company, Athennian, specifically involving Manager Andrew and HR Operations Specialist Arti. Despite initial professional appearances and a formal job offer, the process quickly revealed serious red flags, including: Violation of labor expectations: Athennian, through Omtalent and Talenty, made a job offer without following proper legal hiring procedures. Key aspects such as employment contracts, start dates, and terms were vague, delayed, or changed without justification. Unprofessional conduct: Communication from Gadi and David lacked transparency and accountability. After the job offer, they became inconsistent, evasive, and failed to uphold agreed timelines. Andrew (Athennian manager) and Arti (HR specialist) also failed to provide clarity, leaving me in professional limbo. Disregard for labor law compliance: As someone knowledgeable in labor standards, I identified that their hiring process lacked adherence to fair labor practices, potentially exposing candidates to legal and financial risks. This experience has caused unnecessary emotional and professional distress. I strongly urge job seekers to reconsider engagement with these individuals and companies unless clear legal terms, formal documentation, and respectful communication are established from the beginning. Protect yourself by asking for written contracts, verifying employment terms, and being cautious with third-party recruitment services promising remote roles.
