Ripoff 100% time waste They lie, lie & lie to get you started

I'm writing this report after I read few other reports about this Company... I guess I'm not as lucky as the other guys who wrote those reports...

Ok... So, I was a fresh graduate looking for jobs & I saw the ad on the web. Even though it was not exactly what I wanted to do, I thought I'll give it a try. The first interview lasted about 10 min. I was told that they would get back to me if my resume matched their needs... I got a call the next day & was asked to come in for a second interview. I was told that it would be a full day interview. I didnt have a car & so my friend dropped me off for the interview. I was sent with "Jess" (not her real name. Let me spare her the trouble of having her name ripped off on the web) & spent the whole day going business-to-business. She told me that they have a couple of other people who also interviewed for the same position & based on her recommendation they would or would not invite me for a 3rd round of interview. So, naturally i was trying to impress her to get into her good books.

She was fully incharge of the situation & painted a very bright picture of what working in the company would be like... Ofcourse, she was very nice, friendly & easy going. It must have been a good day for her as she made around $150 (dont exactly know) that day. She told me that the company pays commission for every sale that she makes. She was extra friendly on the ride back to the office (it was 6 PM...) & I really liked her. She told me that since I didnt own a car, it was a major drawback for me & asked me to get back to her when I have a car.

I waited for a few days & when I didnt hear from any other companies, I went ahead & called "Jess" & told her that I was planning on buying a car if I had an offer from the company (foolish me... Little did i know that i was to regreat it later). I thought that i might as well as work at maxwell until

I get other job offers (also, i might also gain some experience). She called me for a 3rd interview & again my friend dropped me off... The interview hardly lasted 5 min (i was sure it was 3min)...& was conducted by Mr. Moon chang. I was told that i could join the next day or as soon as i have the car ready.

I started working there soon & gradually realised that it was not exactly as the way "Jess" put it for me... I left home at 6.30am & returned by 8pm... By then, I already had a car loan & no offers yet from other companies. I was basically working to pay off my car loan. Most of the money I made (I guess i was not that bad in sales as i thought to be) went towards gas & car loan. I was promoted to the next level (level 2 or a 'leadership' level). I was told that now since i was a 'leader', I would have to come in earlier than the rest. I was now leaving home at 6am & returned even later 8.30pm. I worked my xxxx off but wasnt happy at all.

When I became a 'leader', I was told to interview others & was 'trained' on the do's & dont's of interviewing. I was given a list of questions that can be asked & also on how to 'take-charge-of-the-situation' "Jess" also told me that if I get too bored interviewing people, I could always ask people questions about them as people loved to talk about themselves (She also said, "remember when i interviewed you, we didnt have anything in common & yet we could talk for our entire journey to the office?"). I was sick to my stomach & lost all the respect that I had for "Jess" these were a bunch of people teaching other people on how to carry their 'legacy' of interviewing.

I was taught all the 'skills of the trade'told what questions to ask, how to take charge of the interview, how to create an atmosphere of "fear-of-loss" (and to think that i liked "Jess" & desperately bought a car to get to work for them... Foolish me). I hated it.

Also, i learnt that the way u get to the 3rd level (manager level) is when you have interviewed & hired an "x" amount of people... Basically, you are judged by how many people you bring in & how quickly you train them to be like you & produce "x" amount of sales a month. Nothing short of a 'multi-level marketing' type situation.

When i could no longer take it, i quit my job (if u can call it a job) sold my car & learnt an important lesson in my life (which sadly to say i didnt learn at my university. NEVER TAKE PEOPLE AT FACE VALUE).

Unfortunately, I didnt check these rip off reports. If you are lucky, you get to see some of these rip off reports before you get a chance to make a decision..
