Scanno Advertising
Should be Scammo Advertising!

Luckily, I have been around enought to small a rip-off from ten miles away. I own a company but business has been more than slow, so off to pavement pounding. I sent a resume to a company called Scanno Advertising in Anaheim. I had a feeling they were a SCAMMO but was bored and went to an interview.

They claim to work with several fortune 500 companies in the marketing end. I guess that could be in some weird way construed as true. If you could call pouncing on unsuspecting gasoline buying customers as marketing. I know I got my MBA from Havard to to do that!!! (I just have a BA from Cal-State Long Beach)

I was interviewed by a nicely dressed, knaive young man whom was equipped with all the canned sales pitches from Salesmanship 101. I asked him very out-of-the box questions about the company which he could not supply answers too. He contiually went back to the well-rehearsed speeches he was taught. The interview became hillarioius when I grabbed his pen and neatly laid out the pyramid scheme this actually was to paper. I was immediately told that I was asking too many questions and this job would not be for me! I had to laugh at that point. I announced to the ten or so people waitiing in the lobby that this was a scam. A couple people left. I felt vindicated for my time ill spent.
I let the young man know that honesty and integrity would get him further than this SCAMMO Advertising ever would no matter what company he worked for.

Basically what SCAMMO was looking for was people to hang out at gas stations and talk auto cleaners and wax to a captive person pumping gas. This is an entry level marketing postion with a bonafide company?
Hey, we all have to make a buck... But come on, be honest about how you are going to be making it within your company. Maybe some people could make a liviing selling car cleaners at gas stations.

It's a shame to waste people's times, get peoples hopes up and just darn right lie to them to further your own goals. Scammo... Its obvioius why your name appears on the job boards all the time.

I would challenge you to be honest in your endeavors. You may be able to hold a team together that way.
