I noticed a job on craigslist.com that advertised for a administrative assistant for a marketing firm. I applied and within 2 hours, I recieved an email from a women named whitney pagnet that read CONGRADULATIONS. Based on your skills you have been requested for an interview to come in with our company. This was late on a friday evening so i figured I would call on Monday morning to confirm this. As a called monday morn, I asked to speak to whitnet pagnet. The girl who answered acted as aif whitnet wasnt around and when i told her i had an interview she was SO non-chalant and basically said OK great see you when you get here. At this point I was suspicious.
Heres the catch:
A few years ago... I was an admin for one of these cydcor scam companies! They are all the same. They prey on young people and interview 40 people in a day. ANYONE BREATHING WHO POST THEIR RESUME ON CRAIGSLIST, MONSTER OR CAREER BUILDER WILL GET A PHONE CALL! As I wakled in the door to All star executive Inc, I wasnt shocked at all. There was LOUD pop music playing in the reception area (which is something this cult tells the admins to do) they do this so young people will think its a hip enviornment to work in, there were also 5 other people in the waiting room as a pathetic "manager" interviewed them like a loony bin. You all ready for this?
As my name was called I walked right into the "office" and asked the manager if this was a Cydcor company. IMMEDIATLY I noticed his hands begin to shake and he was nervous! He knew I had caught him in his scam. He looked terrified as he asked me if i knew what cydcor was... He was caught.
Point of the story is... Do not work for these companies... Its door to door sales with terrible pay and slave hours. This is a pyramid scam and dont think ur special if they call you for an interview. The turnover rate is so crazy they will take anyone breathing. I saw this when i was admin for one of these comapnies... I quit the second I realized what the scam was... I was basically told to lie to people and email as many people as possible to come in for one of their bull crap interviews... Its sad how i watched people go broke and money being handed to the managers who then give it up to the pyramid people. Creeps and liars. Stay away.
