      Marketing Associate Interview

      Apr 9, 2021
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Philadelphia, PA
      Declined offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at LMI Philly (Philadelphia, PA) in Mar 2021

      Interview

      Sketchy from the beginning. Untruthful about the role and what the company actually does (direct sales AKA selling Xfinity boxes in Walmart). I applied to LMI Philly via LinkedIn, but was contacted for an interview with the hiring manager via text (then email) by a company called Level Up. I was confused and struggled to remember the company, as I didn't recognize the website (levelupcampaigns.com). I did, however, remember applying to LMI Philly.  After comparing the websites, I noticed they were basically the same. Odd, but perhaps they rebranded. Red Flag. I would later discover LMI Philly has changed its name at least 3 times: TransAtlantic X, Mockingbird Executives, LMI Philly, and now Level Up. I was told my first interview would be used as a "job preview" to discuss the role with the hiring manager. I was surprised to find out it was a 15-minute Zoom call with 10 other people, in which everyone but the manager was muted. The "job preview" was just a pointless overview of Level Up. I would find out later the role titles were all meaningless - we were all being considered for the same direct sales position. (Side note - during introductions, the hiring manager told us he played for the Kansas City Chiefs, but I couldn't find him on any NFL roster list.) After the Zoom call, we had to fill out a lengthy questionnaire and to return it within 90 mins. They asked 7-10 decent questions, which I (regrettably) took very seriously and put a lot of effort into. About 4 hours later I was called for a quick phone screening and told I was 1 of the 10 selected for second round "formal" interviews. I was told to prepare questions for the hiring manager about the role/company - so I did. I also prepared answers for common questions and even conducted a mock interview. From what I was told, it sounded like I should be prepared for a 1-on-1, but, again, this was not the case. The "interview" was with me and yet ANOTHER candidate. I wanted to ask my questions about the role, but the hiring manager just gave his presentation about Level Up. They made it seem like they had MANY offices and clients all over the country, even some internationally, but THIS was where it got really fishy... I was told I would start as an "Account Executive" - I'm assuming this is the REAL position/title everyone gets. (I think they just list fake job titles on LinkedIn to attract as many people as possible.) I was told that Account Exec's make an average of $800 a week, but pay/benefit details were not mentioned. Next was "Account Manager," where the average pay slightly increased (can't remember exactly). Next was "Junior Exec" at $75K, and finally "Senior Exec" ranging from $120-160K "or more!" This is where the manager stressed "fast-paced upward mobility" and bringing more people on below you so you can make more money. *cough* PYRAMID SCHEME! I was then told about all of the "perks" - weekly outings on Thursday nights, yearly company vacations (this year is Puerto Rico), and three "company yachts." I thought - "Wow, this sounds too good to be true! What's the catch?" Well, the catch was working 10-7pm Mon-Sat with no guaranteed, all commission-based pay, no benefits, lots of travel (to Walmarts), and no gas reimbursement. YIKES. After the second Zoom interview, I was sent another questionnaire that I had to return immediately. This one had less questions but was more difficult because it was literally a QUIZ of the presentation the manager had just given us. I'm glad I took notes, but some of the questions were on topics he never even covered during the Zoom call because he was too busy buttering us up with lies trying to impress us with how cool and hip they were or whatever. A day and a half later, I got a phone call that I was selected for 3rd round interviews as 1 of 3 remaining candidates. I was told I was their "top choice", thought I'm pretty sure they said that to everyone. This 3rd round was supposed to be in-person, but I had to conduct mine virtually over Zoom. During this last interview, the manager said they wanted to bring on 35+ new hires in 2021 and like 7-10 more locations in 5 years. That is a TON of new hires for a pretty small company and seemed fishy to me. Never once did the interviewer ever ask me about myself, my past work experience, or my suitability for the position. I was also surprised to find out he was only 30ish years old at the "Senior Exec" level (barely older than me). He also told me I was "on-point" twice during this interview, and I actually physically cringed. They called me and offered me the job about two hours after. I accepted and then later declined after scouring Glassdoor reviews that night and I was just appalled at what I found. I wish I hadn't wasted so much time with their dumb "interviews" and questionnaires. Don't even bother applying here. You could make more working for Amazon for $15/hour, and at least you'd get some benefits and health insurance.
