I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at American Income Life (Colorado Springs, CO) in Jun 2016
Interview
I was contacted for an interview and went through the motions. In the initial email inviting me to the interview, I was informed that the dress code is Business Professional. Understandable. I was contacted the morning of the interview to confirm my interview, and told over the phone again that the dress code is Business Professional and reminded to dress professionally. This is a red flag. If you're a professional looking for a professional job/career, you're already going to know to dress professionally for an interview and don't need to be told to dress that way. (should be common sense). There were several other applicants when I arrived and they gave an initial presentation about the company, during which there were lots of references to making lots of money. Money money money is the theme. I got invited back for a second interview, and I was shown the pay structure and a fancy brochure with a clear outline of the pyramid scheme that it is. I was told the training schedule of 10 hours per day, required to be in the office, and unpaid. Required attendance, but not paid. At that point I was disinterested and figured I'd just be sarcastic about my work ethic. I was told that I would be called back later in the afternoon with a decision either way. No one called.
Pushy attitude from the interviewers. They were essentially trying to get me to sign on the a pyramid scheme where they took a percentage of the sales I generated. They also wanted to to pay up front for the training course which was a red flag for me.
You first attend a zoom meeting/ presentation regarding the overview of the job and the benefits of the position. If you take the survey, they will review your resume and, if you are a good fit, they will contact you further to set up an interview. From there, you undergo the interview, which gives you more information on the position and then, if you have performed well, an offer is made.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What was my experience and if I was willing to get a license/certification.
It was fairly straight forward. There were 3 interviews and a coupled zoom calls. Still deciding if I should still with them. They seem really nice. There is no base salary, all commison and all remote as well
