Door to Door Saleswoman

March 13, 2008

When you apply for a job that won’t tell you anything about what it is they do specifically, don’t take the interview unless you plain just don’t have anything else to do.  The company called themselves an outsourcing consulting firm that outsourced it workers for clients’ use.  I had no idea that meant door to door salesman!

I went in for my first interview on tuesday and they immediately wanted me back for a full day interview on wednesday; and they were sure to mention that not everyone made it back for the 2nd interview.

I went with a very friendly girl on my 2nd interview-she was super gung-ho about the job.  I couldn’t believe some of the devious things that i heard come out of her mouth to get the people to sign up with her.  She would say to me, “I’m just trying to save them money and if they don’t want that I can always find someone else to help.”  It took a ton of self control not to brust out laughing every time she said it.  I guess it made her feel better.

She wouldn’t tell me anything about the company until lunch time-which was at 4 freakin o’clock.  And if I asked a question before lunch she wouldn’t tell me anything except that we’ll go over that at lunch.

It was a super shady way to go about an interview and not the way I prefer to be treated.  More lessons learned I suppose.
