Federated Payments Discriminatory treatment and misrepresentation Melville, New York

In responding to any requests to be interviewed by Scott Avery via "Mitsy," his presumed secretary, be prepared to be submitted to the following treatment as I was. I arrived 10 minutes early for an 11:30 "interview" at this multiply named company's location in Melville. I thoroughly researched the company in order to properly prepare and noted the multiple complaints.

I was seated in the firm's vestibule by two affable and smiling receptionists who asked me to fill out an application.

At 11:35, Mitsy emerged from the interior office and informed me that Scott Avery had an emergency and could not see me. Mitsy then stated that I would be called.

Clearly, the "receptionists" signalled by e-mail or other non-verbal manner to Mitsy that I was of a certain age. I firmly believe that this resulted in my being sent away. I am impecably groomed and dressed and have an impressive resume. My only fault isthat I am no longer young.

It is abusive to be treated in this manner and although I cannot prove how this abuse occured, the public should be aware that prospective intervierwers are thus shoddily treated by this company if not subject to the abuse of age discrimination. . I am a Managing Director of a company and a veteran officer (Major, retired) of the U.S. Marines and do not appreciate being treated in this manner and could not stand silently by and allow another human being to receive a similar and abusive treatment.
