Perguntas de entrevista da empresa Modern Business Concepts

1st interview seemed great, like they were a real marketing firm working with fortune 500 companies. 2nd interview was a real drag. They tell you it's an all-day job shadow, but they don't explain that the job shadow is nothing but going door to door. I asked a lot about the business, and the person I was interviewing with had no idea how it worked beyond the president who worked at Modern Business Concepts. I did some research after the interview and found out that MBC is a branch of a MLM pyramid scheme. I found this article on the consumerist, which not only proves it (8 steps to success, 5 steps to a sale, 4 phases of ownership were a part of the final interview), but also gives plenty of background information to the type of company MBC is. They will try to win you over with promises of making all kinds of money, but it is all just a way for management to make more money. The more "sales" people they bring in, management gets a higher percentage. They will take whoever they can get as long as they can get them sales. Don't fall into the pyramid scheme.

The first interview takes about 10-15 minutes. This interview is explained to be the time the interviewer gets to know you to decide if your personality would fit with the job requirements and the company culture. During the first interview the interviewer will explain that the company is successfully and growing due to their "business-to-business (B2B)" approach. What that really means is that their "account associates" are really door-to-door sales people. If you aren't familiar with how B2B operations work (like I was not at the time), you don't find out that it is a door-to-door sales position until the "shadow interview" also known as the 2nd round interview. This is where you get into a car with one of their "top account managers/associates" (keep in mind a complete stranger) and they drive you around to different business offices. They open any door that is an office suite to try to sell office supplies to whom ever is the office manager. During my second round interview, the "account associate" that I was teamed with walked into a personal office of an individual and proceeded to let himself in, even though the man was on the phone and had a look of confusion on why we were still in his personal office. During the first interview I was told that there would be instances of rejection, because that is part of the position. This was not rejection, it was an understandable reaction to practically unlawful intrusion. If you don't want to spend you days driving around, knocking on any door in an office building and being extremely intrusive, then I suggest you don't waste your time with this company. They should just name the position what it really is...door-to-door sales.
