PPI False Advertising, False Job Titles, Emotional Abuse of recent hires, Misrepresenting the company Torrance California

I'm a career counselor at a school very close to this pitiful excuse for a company. One of my students came into my office, crying, because she had just been hired by PPI, Inc, and was told by her boss that she wasn't "getting the job done properly." She had interviewed for an office job, but then that office job turned into a "booth in front of home depot," job. She was supposed to sell their stupid packages to people who weren't interested. Not only that, some of the places where she was supposed to set up shop, were never informed that PPI was going to put their booth on the particular company's property. She was chased off by several angry business owners, only to be told by PPI, Inc that she was doing a horrible job. These people are con artists. After my student showed up in my office, bawling, I called this company and told them that I was going to out them for the frauds they truly were. Just to let everyone know, they will hire anyone. I applied to the company about a year ago and I had no Public Relations skills. They called me and said, "We're very impressed with your skills," when my background was in human resources and social work. They don't screen candidates. They look for people who are out of work and vulnerable and then they prey upon those poor individuals. Do not buy products from these people or send your applications into them. Typically their scheme runs like this....

Step 1- You send in your resume and they call you within 24 hours
Step2- They set up an interview for the next day
Step3- You interview and they hire you the same day
Step4- You find out that the job you initially interviewed for is not the job that you're getting
Step5- You either end up sitting in front of a whole foods market, begging for donations, or you tell them, "no thanks." I advise you to take the second option.
