So, I just scheduled an interview with Vector Marketing...

[dpert1]

And now I dunno wether I should just cancel the interview or go to it and make it a post worthy experience.

Thoughts?

EDIT: In case the hint didnt get across theres no way im working here

Go and make it a post worthy experience.

I wouldn't want to work for them.

Is that the company that sells knives door-to-door? lol, Good Luck. At least you get a chance at honing your interview skills.

If you accept the job I guess you can make a few bucks ripping off friends and relatives.

pyramide scheme... basically you'll sell bunch of sh!t to anyone thats related to you and then you realize that peopel don't actually buy knives on an impulse.

They "hire" everyone because of the above - the more people they hire, the more initial sales they get.

no, I don't need any knives, no you can't come over to my house

And those who do ... well, you really don't want to be standing in their house, now do you?

Would it be illegal to secretly record this experience?

 

[Sqube]

I'm pretty sure it is.

Hahaha, run now. My buddy got an interview with them and he got all excited over it. You get paid something like $10 for every meeting with a potential client, and them you get paid a commision on items you sell like knives and other kitchenware.

He quit after a week. He had a couple of people he met with, but he didnt sell anything.

Also, a few years later, he found an ad for a decent looking job. He applied for it and went ot the orientation. It was the same company and the same sales position. lol

haa. Cutco.

 

[Lola]

Don't work for them.... NOT worth it...
have a fun interview though!!!

 

[Gibson486]

I remember I interviewed with them. During the interview, I just gave them false info because i did not want them to call me.....

You should have a really bad interview to see if they'll still hire you. Get phone calls, bring in a drink and spill it on the desk, use paper on the desk to wipe it up, wear jeans and sandals (with socks for added fun!), don't do anything with your hair, don't shave. It could be quiet comical.

For bonus points, eat a can of beans a few hours before the interview and let them rip without apology.

Shout "Dude, that one reeks!" and go into a conversation of flatulence.

haha, I actually remember going into an "interview" for this company when I was in HS, not knowing exactly what they did. The interview process tries to impress you and makes them look very selective in the sales people they pick. I was picked, but never signed up for it, which was probably the correct choice.

Why would you schedule an interview with a company you knew nothing about? Is this your first job?

Be careful, he could end up with the job like in office space.
