      Entretien

      This is a scam. They won't even look at your CV. They have a room which seems like it's constantly full of people applying for jobs there. Which makes sense because they are constantly hiring, but when you walk into the actual office it is barren. Cyril will have a chat with you for about 10 minutes. For me this was 1:1 but for one of the candidates who I met on the second day she had her interview with another interviewee sat next to her. It seems like they're just trying to whizz through as many as possible. Anyway you'll have a 10 min chat with Cyril who'll mostly talk at you. He showed some of the brands they work with but kept their 'PR events' vague. He mostly spoke about all the staff trips they do - Cyprus, South Africa, Malta ect. The plastic Oscar statues with Arete22 super glued on the front should raise some alarm bells. After being talked at for 10 minutes you'll almost certainly be offered the job there and then. The next day is a 'culture fit day'. Myself and two others were there for the tester day, along with two recent employees and a 'manager'. We walked to the tram to go to an 'event' and on the tram were told to make notes about basic marketing strategies, if you know what marketing is at all you won't need to take notes. The best part was when an old lady kept putting in her 2 pence on how to make money haha! It was quite annoying if I'm honest, especially as you'll be reminded to take notes every two seconds if you're not keeping up. Any attempt to find out what the 'events' actually are will be fobbed off. Once you get there they'll set up a stand in a shopping centre and the new employees will get on with trying to get subscriptions from shoppers 'Hey I love your scarf', 'Look at you mum of the year' you get the picture. Your target will be to get 3 subs a day. (I had had my suspicions when we got to the tram station to be honest.) We were given 8 questions to answer. Standard interview questions. I went away and came back ready to answer them but the manager wanted me to write down my answers. When I came back with my written answers she told me to read them out to her in front of another candidate. They try to keep you separate so you don't air your doubts to each other. But myself and one of the other candidates had already decided to leave. The situation became even more laughable when one of the new recruits said 'It's such a cool place to work, a 19 yr old who turned up to interview in trackies is now a manager! How cool is that?' And 'Yeah so there isn't a basic salary you're paid purely on subscriptions'. Now this part I'm not sure on but it was either £300 for hitting target each day or £300 per sub, I think it was the former though. In the whole time I was there though I only saw one person subscribe so it wasn't looking good for anyone that day. Needless to say myself and the other candidate left. We did miss the part about the 'management training scheme' but honestly I don't think would have been mucb to report. It's not certified training, like if you want PRINCE2 or something like that you would never get that here. It is just Cyril telling you his 'tips n tricks' and if you're good at getting subs on the street you'll end up being the one running the 'culture fit days' for a never ending supply of new recruits. I felt bad for the guy that stayed - he was better than that job having just completed a masters in business management. I honestly don't know why they are trying to exclusively hire graduates beyond the fact that they are naive, easy to manipulate and desperate. If you are going to sign a contract with these guys I'd have a really good look at it. All in all though the biggest irony is that this is a heinous case of false advertising from a company the calls itself a PR company.
