Went for an interview. Lasted all of 3 minutes. However the Ceo (one of like 20 that the company has as there is no seniority) showed me the different departments you would go into.. As if it was a real graduate scheme
Then I surprisingly got a call from Orinta asking me to come back the next day for an "open day" from 11.30-8.30
First of all the process started 45 mins late. Each person was paired with a "leader". Then we had to pay for ourselves to accompany them on their work day. Which was actually just following them around while they cold call people's houses in different areas and try to "suggest" that they use their product.
This carried on until 3pm when we had to pay for our own lunch. Then I got told as a "junior marketer" (just a door to door sales person) you get £250-350 a week.. Catch is, it is 100% commission based. That's right, £15 per person that you get to use the product.
So they want you to roam the streets from 10am-8pm Mon-Fri and potentially earn nothing (most people don't want to open the door to salespeople.) their theory is that for every 100 people you harass, 6 people will purchase. So that's a lot of walking for a totally unreliable income.
Also, the "graduate scheme" isn't time based and you just complete their financial tasks and you move up the ladder. They rush you through the program qnd it was not how it was advertised at all.
Oh also they say you can become a CEO in 4 months and manage your own branch "anywhere in the world"... The staff are disillusioned themselves.
Felt pyramid-schemy to me and I left before the end of the day. Waste of time and money going.
