I'm laughing while I write this because this whole company is an unethical mess!!
I went to my first stage interview which was described as an 'informal meeting with the manager', arrived on time but was sat waiting for an hour and missed my driving lesson I had that day. However, all seemed to be going well as I was invited back for an 'observation day'.
Observation day - What an experience that was! Arrived at the office at half 8, sat waiting for another hour, of course. Ended up travelling all the way to an Asda in Walsall, I was not made aware that we'd be travelling out of Birmingham, also I got told we were travelling to an 'event', not a shabby looking stall outside a supermarket. To sum up what I did on that day, I spent 4 hours sat in an Asda cafe, writing down pointless answers to strange activities in a notebook. I also had to experience intervals of standing in the freezing cold watching them get rejected by numerous people. After all of this I was told its 100% commission!?
I told them I wasn't interested, explained that it was basically a scheme and that this is not marketing, its face to face sales. The current employees are brainwashed, I don't know whether I should feel sorry for them or laugh at them.
I spent £25 in travel on that day and was left stranded in Walsall.
