Buck:
I'm sorry you had that experience with DynCorp, the person I work for has
been telling people during the phone interview what wage Dyncorp is willing
to pay for an entry level position and has been honest with
applicants upfront.
If I didn't think this was a good opportunity for someone, I wouldn't have
posted it to the list for my boss, it's as simple as that.
