I applied for a Customer Service Job on Monster.ca and received a call a few days later from a man inviting me to an interview. My caller ID said he was from TELGA Services. The man on the phone told me that they were an environmental company, so I agreed to come and have an interview with a man named Dan. I called back later and asked for more information because I began to suspect that this was a scam. He would not give me ANY information and just said that 'Dan' would tell me everything I needed to know. I drove into Oshawa for the interview and there were around 5 others waiting, none of which knew anything more than I did. And I was surprised to discover that they were not called TELGA, they were called JUST ENERGY. The lady beside me thought they were a job placement agency! Finally, I had my interview and Dan was telling me how amazing I would be for this job and praising my resume (even though I know that my resume is pretty limited right now). He wasn't even going to tell me that they were an entirely commission based company, but thankfully I asked and he started stuttering over how they didn't want to limit there employees to an hourly wage or salary! Then Dan asked me if I liked the outdoors (which I thought was pretty weird) but as I later found out they do door to door sales LOL. Finally Dan told me he would love to have me in the company and wanted me to commit to coming to an orientation. I told him that I still didn't know enough about the company and wanted to look it up on the internet. I think at that point he knew he'd lost me because just look at what I'm finding out now!!
