I responded to several ad's on online job boards for entry level jobs and immediately recieved calls from three different companies to set up interviews, I was offered the "opportunity" to come back for a second interview and day of observation at all three. The first interview I had was with Defrancesco Acquisitions in NJ, this interview lasted maybe five minutes before I was asked to come back in for a second interview, I later declined because I thought it to be shady.

At Cor Concepts my interviewer seemed to be genuine and the interview even lasted more then five minutes! So, I decided to give it a shot and go to the second interview. While waiting in the reception area another guy coming for his second interview and I were talking and he mentioned that he had a suspision that all of these companies were somehow connected. He was promplty asked to step out in the hallway, and I never saw him again.

Now, I wonder why the red flags didn't go off. But, I was just about to graduate college and was willing to give anything a chance. On my day of observation my interviewer was enthuasastic about the business and she was good at what she did, which I now see as sugar coating the fact that for the next two weeks I would be working over ten hour days for a commision that only ammounted to far less then minimum wage. But, again I was ready to give anything a chance, and was excited at this "opportunity."

Over the next two weeks I trained and wasn't paid a dime, eventually they put me out on my own where I made one sale, and only saw a portion of what I thought I had earned. I worked a total of 40 hours on my own where I spent countless dollars on gas, put countless miles on my car, and had my pitch rejected countless times.

I was also told countless times about the "opportunity" ahead of me if I kept working hard. I must say I was motiviated every day when I left the office both in the morning and in the evening. I now know that atmosphere both in the morning and evening was a very important part of the business and was a mind numbing way to motivate the slaves and manipulate them into always thinking about the big picture while overlooking the present reality. My reality was a draining bank account and a failing automobile. My big picture was a mirage.

Once I started to see faces disapear I started asking questions. That's when i finally snapped out of it and got myself out of this cult like business. I can say that this was a totally worthless experience and I was duped. When I went to quit I was told that I wasn't working hard enough. I wish these people everything they deserve in life.

I went on an interview with COR Concepts

AUTHOR: Cassie - (U.S.A.)

POSTED: Tuesday, October 17, 2006

A few weeks ago I was responding to a Marketing/Advertising position with COR Concepts. I was drawn to their promise of opening new locations and possible managing one of my own.

The VP, I think her name was Melody, told me at least 3 times to make sure I came dressed business professional. When I walked in the office, she was at the receptionists desk taking calls, wasn't even dressed business casual and had GLITTER eyeliner on. If this doesn't scream unprofessional, I don't know what does.

So I had the interview with a guy named Rich or Rick, I forget, and it seemed to go well. I nailed every question and actually left feeling enthusiastic about the possibilities. Until... a good friend of mine told me about scams she had heard about and directed me to ripoffreports.com to check them out.

After getting the call back to come in the following day for round two... and being told to expect to spend an entire day there and to make sure to wear "comfortable shoes," I checked out this site and lo and behold... SCAM!

Luckily, I didn't waste an entire day traveling back to this little hole in the wall office soliciting businesses and wasting time. My only regret is that I didn't go and warn whomever actually did show up.
