This is a total scam. Ad reads $19/hr. manager trainees. Actually this is an MLM scam complete with a large upfront payment returnable once you complete 'manager training'.

During this 'training' you are expected to peddle worthless fire safety crap to friends and relatives who will know (as you did the first time you saw it) this stuff is crap. I did not fall for this scam as it was immediately apparent that this was a waste of time and money.

They will ask you to bring $100 before the interview over the phone. Don't be a dumbass, if you really need to torture yourself with this debacle leave your money at home and just say you have it (they don't actually take the money until the end of the interview), plus it wastes their time (which you'll be glad you did because they wasted yours).

The interview is a joke they ask retarded questions like are you motivated, do you work well with others, do you like yourself, etc. Basically, these are all bullsh^t questions to get you to say yes so you are in the habit of saying yes when they ask for your money.

The registration costs $100, thats why they had you bring the money (so they can extort it out of you). Then they tell you to set up five appointments with friends and relatives to showcase their fire safety products(a major red flag for anyone w/ previous sales exp.) Then they'll tell you that you need to purchase a sales kit at orientation for $300. If you do that then you are a bigger dumbass than I am for going on the initial interview. This is probably the most obligatory example of a scam I've ever seen. They even treat you like sh^t during the interview. Screw these people.

JF Enterprises is actually a cover for AKE Enterprises which is the company responsible for the promotional and safety products purchased (on back of interview material). My guess is there are ties to a more sinister organization.
