Interview
Easy, they give a job to anyone. Just show up have a pulse and they will offer you the job. They make it seem like its selective but when I worked there they literally told me to wait a day to call people because we didn't want it to seem like we were hiring everyone.

Do you know the difference between direct and indirect marketing.

Interview
Oh boy, this place is a total scam. I really hate companies that consider soliciting random people in parking lots to be "marketing" in order to look more appealing. First of all, they book 10 applicants for the same time slot. They made us handwrite our resumes and ask really random questions: "what is your favorite book? Who is your role model?". The interview was some higher up who didn't even bother to look at my resume. I asked the interviewer what a typical day working in this position is like and he gave a non answer about being an achiever. I persisted but he still gave me extremely vague answers. That was the biggest red flag of all. Luckily for me, I've gone to enough job interviews to know a scam when I see it. Unless you want to be scammed into being a solicitor, please don't even bother applying.

Interview
I received an email from a woman with a number to call for an interview. She sent the email at 1am for some reason. I called the number back and was immediately disconnected, called again and it was some sort of free VOIP system with no voicemail box, so I shot her an email with no response. Googled the number and it's got a colorful history, I'll say that.
Fast forward to today and I get a call from their hiring manager for an interview, lots of fluff but it's all vague in the details. They've given me several different phone numbers now and all of them are just private cell phones, you'd think a company this big and successful could get a 1-800 and a bigger online presence. They bring people in all at once and you meet with their HR for a few minutes, and then come back later for the follow up interview, which is a bit more like a sales pitch - I'd avoid this one if I were you. They swore up and down over the phone that they're not a door-to-door or outbound telemarketing firm but they absolutely are.
