Beware of attractive, but possibly deceptive job ads which offer entry-level training in management, marketing, and sales especially if the ads state no experience required. If you decide to interview with such a company, ask many questions before accepting employment. Will you be paid minimum wage or commission? Are there company benefits?
People who interview with Cydcor affiliates are told they have the opportunity to be trained for marketing, management, sales, public relations, advertising, human resources so they can open their own office.What the job seekers are not told is that they are trained to open new independently owned corporate licensee offices thus repeating the recruiting cycle.
Beware of invitations for an all-day second "interview". If you decide to go to the second "interview", wear comfortable shoes as you will be doing lots of walking trying to sell door-to-door.

The Career page states "Entry Level Representatives Includes" Account Management and Benefits - Medical, Dental and Vision. What about vacation time or paid time off?
Account Management
Do your research. Account managers do not do door-to-door sales and door-to-door sales reps do not manage accounts. If Nathaniel and Associates have, for example, twenty sales reps, would all twenty sales reps actually interface with Verizon Fios management? The answer is no. Nathaniel and Associates probably does not deal with Verizon. Nathaniel and Associates deals with Cydcor and Cydcor deals with Verizon.
Benefits - Medical, Dental and Vision
If you interview with Nathaniel and Associates, ask when would the benefits coverage begin? Ninety-days after employment start date?

I think everybody should check out the Scam Detector app.
ReplyDeleteI used to work for this company and I have to agree it is the biggest scam. It is amazing how long people actually stay with this company and aid them in hiring new people. Not only is it door to door sales the job REQUIRES you to integrate it into every aspect of your life. You MUST work 6 DAYS A WEEK 11 hours a day. Not including the far too often 7 day weeks. And mandatory “team nights” There are no vacations or breaks included and the benefits are not eligible to all employees.
