Risque maid service business recruits at Marshall job fair

HUNTINGTON, W.Va. (WSAZ) -- Students go to college to try to find better career opportunities, but a business that showed up at Marshall's job fair Wednesday was not exactly what the school or most students have in mind.

"I'm just offended," sophomore Isabella Kouns said. "As a woman, I'm offended."

Kouns went to Marshall's Job-A-Palooza in the Student Center looking to find an internship or part-time job, but one of the tables she stopped at was offering the last type of job she expected.

"I was honestly shocked and disgusted," she said.

She was given a card for Dust Bunny Maid Service.

The $25 per hour line on the card piqued her curiosity, so she went to their website.

"I checked it out, and it ended up being a website where'd I'd have to clean in sexy outfits," she said.

According to the website, the business has women perform housework while wearing lingerie and bikinis.

"It's very unfortunate that this happened," Kouns said. "I don't think Marshall knew that this kind of company was here."

University spokesperson Ginny Painter says the company signed up for the job fair under a different name, and once the school found out they were promoting a sexy maid service that potentially could be considered sexual harassment, in an abundance of caution, they were asked to leave the job fair immediately.

"I don't think it's right for a company that degrades women and objectifies them to be at a Job-A-Palooza," Kouns said.

The university spokesperson says the company will not be invited to future events.

WSAZ called Dust Bunny Maid Service, but a manager claimed they had no knowledge about anyone from the company being at Marshall's job fair.
