They found me on Careerbuilder.com and sent me an email where they are looking for people for various positions, including Advertising/Public Relations, Management. So I go for the Interview and find out all they are really looking for are sales reps.
So I go through the interview, hear they want me to come back the following business day and go "shadow" am account mgr. For 2 hours to see what they do to make sales. If I do well, they will hire me.
Well, I had a bad feeling about this, so I came home and Googled this company and its parent owner, Smart Circle. All I found here were tons of reports of employees being scammed, etc. And people being told NEVER to work for these people as it's all a pyramid scheme. Found other websites as well and was told at every single one to RUN, DO NOT WALK, BUT RUN away from these people.
Anyway, I decided to follow my gut feeling and stay away from this company. I just wish I had done and Internet search on them before wasting 1 1/2 hours of my life driving to the interview and spending 10 minutes with the interviewer.
