The Recruits

Face the Facts

Available for over a year

As youth unemployment continues to rise, John Waite investigates a training operation which has left hundreds of young people around the country without the training they signed up for or the jobs they were promised. Instead they are thousands of pounds in debt. The training provider folded, the recruitment company is apparently no longer operating and now the first payments on the loans are being demanded. How did one of Britain's biggest banks get involved in a programme which proved so worthless for many of its students?!
