Pros

no pros, this company falsely advertises ts postions from what your truly doing to suck in candidates. However alot of energetic kids.

Cons

I dont usually do this but, it upsets me to see that Danielle, CEO, falsely advertises her positions to get quality recent graduate candidates. She advertises her positions on many job posting sites as " Entry Level Marketing Advisor", "Marketing Assistant" or something eloquent when all you are doing is standing in a subway station from 8 am to 7 pm getting people to sign up for a fundraiser or some non-for-profit. Seriously, your literally waving people down in subway saying " hey, quick question, have you ever heard of xxx, ....." They even train you to know how to psychologically wave people down. Then if you do that well for about 2 weeks, you may be promoted so you are running a team that is selling in subway station. But you are selling it with them. Dont get me wrong some kids was pulling in money. some even $5000 a month. But like any sales gig it depends on how well you run up on people in the subway station. I definitely respect Danlelle and the companies hustle, but your wasting your companies resources and other peoples time when you falsely advertise. Trust me kids I'm going through the pain now, real marketing experience is when you learn CRM data entry, search optimization, saas, etc. Understanding how to analyze and simplify customer data. Developing and executing campaigns with a detailed marketing strategy and so on. If this is what you want pay attention to job descriptions as u apply. But back to Danielle, its a simple 95% commission face-to-face sales job, I would hope she would advertise it as so. If you want real marketing experience this is not it. Again, I don't mean to knock this sales company but this site helped me decipher real companies from frauds and I want to do the same for others. Just a side note, it mostly really rich kids who have a real solid financial foundation that want to prove to "daddy" that they can make it on their own. Thais my personal opinion tho. Anyway good luck on your job search everyone!

Dear applicant, we are sorry that the interview wasn't for yourself and we can see you were clearly frustrated with how the interview went. We make the marketing assistant position very clear that you will not be doing any digital or indirect marketing such as "CRM, data entry, search optimization, saas, etc." we are a direct marketing company and only deal with face to face interactions as it says on our website, we don't have one advert posted which talks about any of these marketing experiences. Just because we don't do digital doesn't make us "frauds" as you may say. The hours do not consist of standing in a subway from 8am until 7pm- so there might have been a miscommunication there. We are sorry that you feel you have wasted your time on something that you didn't realize had anything to do with your specific marketing interests. and you are more than welcome to contact the company for travel reimbursement for the day.
