I had just moved to virginia beach in and i wanted to apply for a job so i saw an ad from IMA about telemarketing, so i called and she told me to come in and do an interview the same day, i was psyched about it at first, then when i got there they put me in this room for training with a couple of other people to read scripts, i didn't do that well but i still got the job and i didn't show up.
About 2 weeks later i called the company back and did the same training and i got hired again, i figured they were really desperate because i left them hanging the first time. Not knowing what im getting into, i came to work dressed up thinking it was somewhat a descent job but yet they showed us these small rooms assigning each person to them i felt like i was back in high school, it looked like it was too many in one room, then i noticed people coming to work with house shoes on, the girl they had me with didn't train me properly and i can tell she liked the job a little to much and i don't see why. I had to lie and tell them there was entered in a DREAM COME TRUE SWEEPSTAKES and how they would when a watch which i had numerous customers curse me out about how they didn't receive their watch and i didn't know what to tell them, then i was told by the supervisor not to tell where the location was, it was just to many red flags for me that's why i only worked there for 2 1/2 days because i was not feeling it, i felt bad lying to people about something i knew they weren't going to get, plus the atomosphere was not professional, to small, to hot, and i noticed how they have the young white girls working downstairs under the air conditioner while everybody else upstairs sweating. That was the worst 2 1/2 days of my life.
I think i only got a 15 min break, i just feel i was lied to from the advertisement, it was NOTHING i expected and i think it's funny when i talk about my experience working at IMA the minority have worked there before and say the same thing if not more. I hope they get put out of business for scamming people to get money from there credit card.
The moral of this story is, if you're a new resident of, virginia beach, DO NOT RESPOND TO IMA FOR A JOB, apply elsewhere because i would rather flip burgers in a hot kitchen before working there again.
