A little background of the rant:I’m just a regular, hard-working person looking to join a new team and find a new opportunity after my previous role was made redundant. The job market right now is incredibly intense, challenging, and competitive, not just for candidates, but for employers too.So, I decided to take the old-school approach: I got ready, printed my CV, and popped in to see if I could meet someone in person. I thought it might be refreshing to meet people face-to-face, have a genuine conversation, and show my enthusiasm in a way that goes beyond sending endless emails.When I arrived, I was greeted by a lovely man at the building’s reception. I told him I wanted to speak to someone from the Connective3 team. He kindly went to ask and came back after a while, saying:“They said they’re busy, but you can check the roles online or leave your CV with me and I’ll pass it on.”I’m quite a persistent person, so I asked if there was any chance I could speak to someone quickly, since I had come all this way to make a genuine connection. The guy went back to ask only to return with a note containing HR email address. That was it.Really?Not one person could come out to say a quick hello, to acknowledge someone who made the effort to visit, who showed genuine interest in your company? I completely understand and respect that you are a busy agency! But nobody is that busy to show basic courtesy and respect. A simple two-minute interaction to say “Hi, thanks for stopping by” would have gone a long way.I wasn’t asking for a meeting or an interview, just a polite acknowledgment would have been enough. Nobody is that busy to be polite.It honestly felt like your team thought someone showing initiative and effort wasn’t worth even a little 2 minutes to pop outside to reception.It’s about basic human decency. Treating people with kindness and respect costs nothing, yet it makes all the difference. "

We hired Connective3 for a one-month, $10k test digital marketing campaign to build backlinks for our platform. This connectiv3 review is based on what we actually got: mostly low-quality links that we believe are worth half the price, at best. When we brought this up, Connective3 basically shrugged and said, “It wasn’t in the contract.” That’s not what we expected from a supposedly reputable agency. We feel scammed and definitely wouldn’t recommend them for anyone looking for real, measurable SEO results. "
