Entrevista
For a company that prides itself on being a best place to work they treat job seekers poorly. I was told I would get an update about a 3rd interview but never heard back from them and was ignored when I reached out. No respect for job seeker's time and efforts. Should have known not to expect anything good based off the way the president attacked people on glassdoor for their reviews :(

I was asked to come in for a second interview so I could be "assessed"
Met them at a career fair and they invited me for an interview, both of them were in the office in Bridgewater. I got great vibes from the company when I was there and enjoyed the ambiance. However, it has been 2 months since I did my second interview and I still have not heard back. I emailed the company asking for a follow up last month and I was told I would hear back by the end of the month but that never happened.

I got called in for an interview and while the staff I talked to were all friendly, I got a strange gut feeling about the place. It felt like they were all actors. They didn't care about my qualifications and didn't really care about my experiences, education, or anything else that you would expect a place of employment to care about. I have no idea why universities allow companies like this anywhere near a career fair.
They said that most of the day I would be out of the office making sales (mostly Quill products).. which they don't provide a base salary for (if you don't make a sale, you're working for free).. Just to be clear, that's not what bothered me.. there is nothing wrong with a sales job where you work on commission if that's what you're looking for. What I didn't like was the fact that they made the job sound like it wasn't going to be a SALES job. They said it was a marketing and sales job. When I asked about where the marketing would come in, the interviewer said "well isn't the best way to market something to sell it?" ???????????? Interesting. Moving on..
They kept talking about how quickly I could "advance to the next level of management" without really talking about the current job I was interviewing for. They didn't even make it sound like you need any skills at all to "advance".. just to hire new people to work below you... In short, blumarc reeked to me of a multi-level marketing scheme and a huge waste of time.
I also want to add that even if for some reason I WANTED to work here, I wouldn't be able to afford it. They don't offer any kind of travel compensation or use of a company car (and most of the day is spent driving around to meet with clients), they don't offer a base salary, not even for the first few months while you train.. This job doesn't pay until AFTER you've already worked for 6 months for free.. and invested thousands of miles driving from place to place to try and learn how to get some clients.
I got called to a second and third interview within several hours of completing each previous interview.. They were pushy for me to come in quickly and didn't really seem to want to give me a chance to reflect on the interview process and think over my options. I didn't go to the third interview.
