I was starting to look for jobs and uploaded my resume on the usual job websites and got caught to these scams. The first time i went for the interview thinking i was going for an 'account management' position. WHAT A LIE! I was thrille dto get selected for the second interview and ended up getting driven around with another 'account manager (or so he seems to believe).. At one point i was standing in line at a dairy queen waiting to talk to the guy who was making the ice cream to ask him what phone service he was using and if he was using the service i was promoting, could i see his phone bill... CAN YOU IMAGINE HOW AKWARD THAT IS??? We kept pulling up at restautants and apartment leasing centers. And basically just being a PAIN IN THE ASS to everyone!
I got caught again this time to CAP concepts mainly because the guy who intervied me kept saying we are hiring you for a Manager position. So i went for the second interview which was going to be from 12-8! (Nice work hrs right?).. We pulled up at some deserted shopping center somewhere in fairfax. We started walking.in the hot sun. From door to door trying to cell a $30 coupon to anyone and everyone! At one point a customer at a CVS store threatened to call the police and say we are harrasing her. Thats when alarm bells started ringing. My 'Boss' for that day was a lanky early 20 something boy who was convinced that he was going to be a CEO very soon. He kept getting ignored and snapped at by angry consumers and shop owners. I felt bad for him. I had absolutly NO respect for him. He was a total door ro door salesman. It was SO embarresing. At one point i asked him 'so is everyone here going to be a manager?' He sounded SO stupid when he replied yes cause we both knew it was impossible. And the worst part is these people dont get paid either. Its commission.
I finally couldnt take it anymore and told them i wasnt interested and went home after 2 hours. What a load of crap.
These companies are SCAMS. Total rip-offs. These people use the term 'manager' as bait and people fall for it. If you go for an interview and there are 20 people more waiting at the lobby SAVE YOURSELF and just walk away.
