Fresh Graduate: Harrowing job hunting experience at insurance company

[covertbriar]

I couldn't find employment for quite some time after graduating from university and got a little desperate, so I decided to interview for a job at an insurance company. It ended up being a seminar style thing where they basically talked about how much money you could make, and made everyone undergo some personality tests. During the "interview" I made it clear that I didn't want to take up an insurance sales job. They assured me that they had many positions open and would help me to look for a suitable one (non client-servicing related).

They called me back a while later. Convinced me that I am well suited for selling insurance (bullshit through and through). Said I had to pay $300 to attempt a set of examinations but once I passed they'd reimburse me the full costs. I was hesitant... and then they replied: "Not a problem we can always settle this for you first." Well I subsequently passed the exams and reiterated my refusal to work as an insurance sales agent as already indicated in the very beginning. Guess what? A representative of theirs was instructed to accompany me to the ATM to immediately withdraw funds so as to pay them back the entire amount.

I was so stunned and nearly cried. And just like that, a stupid fresh graduate was cheated of her money. F*** those people.

Must be local as Pinoys, PRC's or Indian nationals will probably con the insurance company instead (with their fake qualifications)!

The company of a trading company will shortlist you for an interview as sales engineer then during the interview they will test your selling skills then when look happening to the candidate already they will tell them you need to buy the product from them then resell out KNN KNN KNN

How was she cheated?

That $300 was for her exam fees. Since she passed those exams, she received her certification to probably let her sell insurance and financial products. She certainly wasn't cheated. That bitch is a liar.
