Golden Circle DEFFINTELY A SCAM... Southington Connecticut
I would first like to thank the people who filed reports on this company before my own. You saved me alot of grief in persuing employment with this company.
First off, I will admit I was one of the many to fall for the glorious add that appeared in the Republican American online. The add stated its desperate need for 20-25 new 'customer service' reps, and a 'starting potential of 475/week, CALL TODAY START TOMORROW!'. My story is alittle different though. i was hired by this company twice in about a month time period.
When I first went for an interview with this job, I was hired by a female, probably the same age as me. She interviewed me and called me about 2 hours after to congratulate me on my new job. I'm 21 years old and as a young person trying to make it in a new state...this is really all you need to hear.
To make a long story short, on my way to the first day of training- I was in a 4 car pileup. I called to tell them I was unable to make it to the training for this reason and the woman on the other end replied,"All we can do is give you a call when our next training session begins." They never called. A month later filled with many applications to all over the Hartford area, I came across another add, "Assistants needed, $400 guaranteed a week," or something to that effect.
Notice, they NEVER put the name of their company in their adds, and run several adds at a time. So, I called. At the end of the conversation (which was kind of like a guy driving a sale...) he told me the name of the company. I told him of my previous issue with the company and asked if that would be a problem, he said absolutely not..and I was off to a second interview.
I was interviewed again by a guy around the same age as me. He basically took my application, looked over it for .5 seconds, asked me for my number because I forgot to put it on...and then jokingly asked me if he could call me later. Then he asked me why i moved to CT, and when I replied I moved with my Boyfriend, he asked me if we were getting married...which I dont see what that has to do with anything. He continued to flirt and didnt say anything motivating about the job at task. Then he mentioned that he had just ,"interviewed a bunch of hood rats," and other stupid things about previous and future applicants.
I knew in my guy that something was off, but again I am desperate for work. So the same day of my interview I Googled this company and was startled to see more than 3 "Rip Off Reports" about other people's hardships and bad experiences with this company.
Again, Thanks for the heads-up people...and I agree, somethign should be done to stop the false advertising.
