- Allen Samuel is, without a doubt, a terrible recruiter! If anyone ever has the misfortune of dealing with this patently inept and transparently incompetent recruiter, proceed at your peril;
- His recruitment and candidate selection practices are inherently discriminatory, biased and arbitrary;
- He continuously ‘filters’ candidates based on past experiences with the candidate (ie. if you were deemed unfit for a role previously, you will be denied further consideration for other opportunities); this goes against Juniper’s own equality polices & guidelines given that: (i) – every opportunity is a different one; and (ii) – Juniper encourages candidates to reapply if a suitable opportunity doesn’t transpire;
- He’s incredibly arrogant, disrespectful, snide and even arguably quite racist, xenophobic and homophobic towards candidates that he doesn’t seem to have a liking for;
- He is immensely lacking in basic courtesy and general etiquette (ie. doesn’t return calls/e-mails, fails to follow-up with feedback, gets annoyed when pushed for a status update, etc);
- He is a complete and utter disservice to not only to the hiring managers that he deals with but also to Juniper Networks and its customers, partners and shareholders given that he is allowing his prejudiced views to pass over candidates with genuine talent and potential instead opting to move forward candidates that he feels would be an appropriate fit;
- Think these invectives are from a disgruntled individual? Think again. Check out all the negative reviews about him on Glassdoor, eBass Watch, Salary, Vault, Pay Scale and various career sites dating back a while; read more about Allen Samuel right here:

- If anyone doesn’t want to initiate a formal complaint in fear of possible reprisal (eg. if applying for other opportunities, your complaints about this recruiter might impact your candidacy), then the best is to proceed with an anonymous complaint to the Juniper Board of Directors, Majority Shareholders, Customers and Executives; it would be completely pointless to raise this with the Head of HR or Recruiting (they will do nothing about this), but instead direct such grievances to the executive brass who will pass it down the chain for further investigation:
