GBTotal sales scam Received a random email from someone here, prompting me to setup a call. I get on the call and this girl gave me the standard sales pitch. board members make $1k/hour on average (the bait), then tells me that there's a setup fee to setup my profile, and then a monthly fee of $50. I then asked her if she had my linkedin profile, and she said she didn't. So I asked how do you know if I qualify? To which she studdered and didn't have a response. I asked to see their sample criteria for board members, and only to get a copout answer that they are all different... no it's not. Total scam sales job. They are just trying to signup as many people to the platform as possible and get your subscription fee.

GBDon’t trust a company that can’t handle questions. Never trust a Company that scouts you just to hang up on you aggressively when you ask analytical questions. Essentially, I pressed the rep about the fact that they want 200 bucks for a profile set up plus another $195 a month for 2-3 months before you ever get an interview and MAYBE get a board seat offer… so you’re spending about $1000 or more with no ROI and no way to get your money back for wasting your time if you don’t land a board. When I mentioned that, I was met with snark and told “if you don’t want to do this, then don’t” before the salesman hung up without giving me a chance to respond. I guess I didn’t help his quota this week. Don’t bother paying a company that can’t manage a phone call they scheduled with you. Edited on 2/27/24. Apparently Boardsi is not only rude, but dishonest. Denying how their reps treat prospects on a public forum doesn't make them a better catch. Be discerning and careful.

GBRun away before you part with your precious money Writing this review to potentially help others avoid this obvious scam. While I'm sure they do place some people occasionally in some positions... you sure as hell would not know it from there sales people. Couldn't give any numbers or information or data about the probability of placement or if I'd be a good fit (honestly I wouldn't) didn't stop the salesperson from asking for a credit card and a follow-up date. Just curious to see the BS spin from the person responding to these. By the way, anyone who is still debating whether or not this is a good service... I have been researching this company for 3 hours now and not found one positive confirmed person who was able to get a job through them.

GBNot worth the monthly fee I saw zero return on my investment. Not to mention, the team could not articulate how they were marketing me to potentially interested companies. I participate for almost 6 months, which I felt was ample time to see if there were possible matches or traction. Save your money and effort and look elsewhere.

GBLisa Williams Lisa Williams, Leadafi, absolutely hands down was the distinguishing factor in my positive Boardsi experience. Lisa’s competence in writing my executive summary for posting was astounding. In Lisa’s first version was transformative of my resume - a complex industry specific CV. I am a professional writer myself and I have never reviewed a piece where I had no edits. It took me a long time to make one style edit of one word. The clarity in explaining in prose, my resume was perfect. I mean perfect. Boardsi is lucky to have Lisa and do whatever you can to keep her. Best regards, Douglas Cote CEO Emeric Capital
