Went to one of these bogus "interviews" in one of their "offices" located in a shabby strip mall.  Was total garbage, of course, a total waste of time - just a pyramid scheme as others have indicated.  Was hounded for months after by these losers trying to get me to sign up.Even on their own website, buried under a tiny link to "Important Disclosures", they admit that the average income of one of their "representatives" in 2010 was (drum roll) $5,296 per year:http://www.primerica.com/public/primerica_disclosures.htmlQuite the little dialogue Grossman has going on here between fake posters about the thrilling "opportunity" they have been so exalted to be invited to participate in.  Then again, fake postings and bogus job offers are pretty much par for the course for this operation and others of their ilk.Avoid.

This is so funny. I too recieved a call from Tal Grossman,from that number, about a job as a "team leader". Although I have no doubt that I would be great with people, I felt that it was odd the V.P of Primerica was doing the hiring. My interview was a couple of days ago, I didn't go because of some negative instinctual feelings, and I get a message on my answering machine saying how I missed a great opportunity, and that he has influences in the gta job market, and he might have to put a bad word out! Who does this? So completely unprofessional;to match my disregard for responsibility with your own disregard of professionalism!I am so glad that I found this forum. To the people that have found good jobs with this company:good for you. To everyone else: If it looks like a duck....You can't all be wrong, can you?!

Primerica solicits as follows:

You post your resume on Monster, CareerBuilder, etc.

They troll the resumes.

They call you.

They leave a voice mail that says something like: "our company is opening a branch office in your area and we were referred to you as a strong candidate for a managerial position." If you call them or speak with them on the phone, they will invariably demurr on the details on the business, and pretty much stay with the vague script wording that they use in their voicemail. They will stay with the "management position for a big important company" schtick.

At this point, having had my time wasted with one of the A-holes once on an in person meeting a few years ago, I bust them. I just say: "are you really representing Primerica". I generally get a sheepish "yeah". I tell them something along the lines of: "SORRY! I have a career, and what you are offering is total crap."  Usually they hang up on me. My fun for the day.

The point is, Primerica doesn't pay a salary, they demand an enrollment fee, they want you to attend their cult training, and they do not go out looking for programmers. It's a financial services MLM pyramid. The "jobs" are commission only sales jobs, and you create your own leads. You are supposed to recruit other Primerica stooges.  Utterly consistent and deceptive recruiting M.O.

I got a call from this guy yesterday. Set up an interview for tomorrow. Said he got my information from someone who referred me for a job and he wants to interview me for a leadership role in the company. I always get suspicious when anyone mentions Primerica so I thought I would google his name. I am so glad I found this site. I am not going to the interview after this.Thanks everyone!!!

I agree with those that say MLM is a bad deal for most people. It's "endless chain" compensation and recruiting. MLMs typically telemarket all hours of the day, weekends, holidays, and are taught to prospect and recruit 24/7. Your friends will avoid you if you bring this shiite up to them.

They teach people that your friends are losers if they don't join. People get obsessed because of the groupthink training sessions where they get your endorphins firing. 90%+ lose money in MLMs. Products are usually mediocre and better and cheaper elsewhere. Markets are often already saturated with people who have been harassed by MLM telemarketers. You work harder for longer hours, weekends and holidays included, but you don't get paid for that work, you only get paid to make a sale. You might work for a week just to get one sale, then you get a very tiny cheque because 6 or more people and the company also have to get paid from that sale. MLM is a really bad business model, but they lobby government and make donations to politicians so they can influence the laws in the country.

A lot of off-the-street types who are down-and-out join, but just lose more.

Check with www.the-cma.org to see if they are registered and abide by the CMA rules for marketing. If they are, you can file a complaint. If not listed, ask yourself why?

I joined Tal's office 2 months ago. Primerica paid for all my licensing, my mutual fund licenses, and has not only helped my family and a few of my friends, but has given me a system for referrals and continued success. Not sure why there is so much dislike for someone as successful as Tal, but the bigger you get in business the more people try to take shots at you. To the writer above, you have it all wrong. You obviously didn't invest enough time researching the truths, you are misinformed and probably still unemployed! Everything that was promised to me has been delivered!
