This guy isn't actually the VP of Primerica, I think he's just a regional VP of a certain office of Primerica (sounds similar to other MLM where there are various levels within various regions, much like Vector).
Sounds funny that they have so much time to interview so many people, it's almost like they're desperate.

From past experience, most jobs opportunities are first filled my family members or friends of the respective company, so it really is amazing how they can afford to hand out this many interviews.

I have no clue how these people got my info. They called offering a job training CSR's, and sales agents. I called back to inquire about their pay structure only to find out it's all commission based. Stay away from them if your looking for a reliable job.
 

Funny!

How come every time someone comes on and writes something positive, ironically within 24 hours 'someone else' has a negative rebuttle? Coincidence? The website obviously has someone on alert everytime something good comes up. It's understood that the larger the stream the more advertising it can command. They prey on bad mouthing reps - not sure what the purpose is, but Read what LOL had to say...Many companies hire both full time and part time representation.  When reading the legal posting - which is required by both the American and Canadian government, you'll not that the average income is such.  The company also houses 110,000 locensed reps and paid over $500,000,000.00 to them!  Some people didn't show up for the year and consequently made $0, bringing the average down.  If we averaged all the school teachers across the US and Canada and pooled their incomes, including supply teachers and maternity leavers, the average would be a far cry from what the actual ones who worked was... The same holds true for any profession.  It is a unique company where anyone can make it - it makes NO PROMISES, it requires a lot of work - like any business you want to build.  The reality is that the company doesn't require you to use your contacts, that's just an easy place to start. Rather, it requires you to use your mouth and speak - to build new contacts.  Regardless of the business you are trying to build, you must establish a name for yourself.  People need to know you're in business to do business with you.The model, while appealing to some, isn't for everyone.  "Irritated by Pyramid Shills" can rest assured as 2 things are for sure. 1 - The company is not a Pyramid and 2 - no one in the company wants to hire YOU!  Negative, dull, frustrated crybabies have no part in American or Canadian business other than running coffee to the President of the company!Primerica is looking for enthusiastic, entrepeneurial, happy people with excellent communication skills and a strong desire to help the middle market make a diffence and get better financially.  It's amazing to read so much negative stuff from people that are truly not doing much else with their lives.  They search "Primerica" on google just to come to a site like this and dump - hoping to keep someone else from taking a chance and bettering themselves... I wish both sides much luck!Oh... and to the JOKER above - who copies and clicks the link to the Primerica disclosure page which shows average earnings, and then calls this company a "pyramid" and "they just want you to recruit more people..." If you actually took the time to read the link you posted it also shows that Primerica is a publically traded company, regulated by both the American and Canadian governments (respectively), goes through how every individual is an independant contractor... etc etc... try this link on...http://news.primerica.com/

I was recently referred by a friend to "Primerica" for an "opportunity."  He refused to mention any details and simply said, "Man, you just gotta check it out."  I obliged, considering I'm desperately looking for work this summer to pay for university.  On the drive there,  he gave me minor details, still proclaiming, "Man, you just gotta talk to this guy.  He'll explain everything."  From what I gathered, I figured this "opportunity" revolved around sales; my amusement quickly dissolved.After waiting about half an hour, I was finally greeted by a "representative", whom I quickly identified as a boorish blockhead.  Our interview (I think that's what it was) began by him flashing all these fancy figures that I could be earn if I chose to join Primerica; uninspired and skeptical, I asked him monotonously, "So, doesn't this job require education?"  He was sharp--like a snake preying on a mouse--and said, "We actually require our representatives to complete a course in finance."  As our "interview" continued he explained why term life insurance was so good and frequently pointed at pictures of fancy digits and dollar signs; essentially I had no idea what was really going on, neither did he tell me what I'd actually be doing.  As he rapped up his uninspiring presentation, he began asking me hypothetical questions like, "How much money would like to make in life?" or "How many hours would you like to work?" and "What kind of luxury car would you like to drive?"--claiming all my dreams would come true if I joined Primerica, as I could work little hours and make a six-figure income (though, unfortunately, none of my dreams revolve around money.)  He then told me that I'd be required to pay $100 to get a finance certificate, and therefore be qualified.  I immediately thought, SCAM.  But no, I wasn't quite right. They do send you to a legitimate place (you can find them on your own) where you can obtain a certificate in finance.As I had now listened to this guy's explanation--I think I was supposed to be brainwashed--my friend had now felt inclined to fill me in on the details.  On the ride home, which, by the way, he played a motivational CD by some Primerica guy (creepy,) I was finally told what I would be doing: selling life insurance.  On the surface, not that I would be interested or anything, it didn't seem like the deceptive conclusion that I came to later on.  However, as he continued, he said that for my "training" I would have to go out with Daniel (the representative) and explain to my family, as well as other close contacts, how the service worked; in turn, I would receive a small portion of any sales made.  By the time I got home, I began to put together the puzzle.  I was told during my interview not to look up Primerica on the web, but to go to specific sites, which he wrote down for me.  I thought that it was pretty sketchy, but  he assured me of the business's integrity with the high ratings that the company received in valid business magazines, and then showed me where Primerica was on the New York Stock Exchange.Even though the closest I've ever made it to in business is through Death of a Salesman, by Arther Miller, I became acquainted with some business terms, terms that he failed to mention.  I reached the conclusion that Primerica is a multi-level marketing organization; they operate through a pyramid scheme.  Basically, how it works is you, the salesman, go out and sell their life insurance; in turn, however, your sales makes everyone else money, including a relatively small portion for yourself (the people higher up on the "pyramid.")  They operate through referrals and allow you to recruit people, yourself, to make more money (which is why my friend was so eager to refer me.)  The reason they want you to work for them is because you'll make them money, while they virtually do nothing.  There's essentially nothing wrong with this, but if you think about how such an operation is ran, it seems quite pathetic: they'll hire anyone (the more the merrier) and by sending these non-professional, non-educated people out to sell life insurance, do you think people will actually buy it?  What if the potential buyer decides to, uh, I don't know, ask questions?This is where they get you again.  Throughout my interview, the guy explained how their product, term life insurance, was so great; typically, he's right, but for life insurance, it certainly isn't a "one size fits all" scenario.  Also, he made it seem that this product was so unique and that they're the only ones who offer it.  I believe I had asked him how likely it would be to sell this product in terms of competition.  He pulled out a red herring and went on about something else--I think about their really low rates.  I went on Google and was surprised to find that practically every insurance company offers the same service.  I did a few quotes under various ages and scenarios and also found that Primerica is much more expensive, practically under every circumstance, than other services--how are you supposed to sell that?  He had me convinced that their service was the "Wal-mart" (We sell for less!) of life insurance.  Nope.  Finally, I put everything together and this is what I gathered:They try to sell life insurance to your friends and family (because, for your training, you have to "observe" the representative through six session of him trying to sell life insurance [to your close friends and family.]) And what better people to sell to!  You go to them, saying, "I just got this new "job" and this is part of my training--are they, as your friends and family, going to be inclined to buy this half-a** insurance policy?  Obviously.  Once you get through these six observations sessions, your training is now complete and you can now sell freely.  But, once again, who's going to want to buy from your non-professional, non-educated self?  Certainly, not those close friends and family, as they--if they decided to even make purchases--bought them off your representative.  I wouldn't see these people as your only hope as sales but, in the end, who's else is going trust your non-professional a**?  This is the beauty of multi-level marketing: your sales will quickly run out once you've heard, "Nos" from all you'll close friends and family.  At the end of the day, you, as well as many others, have just made someone higher up in the pyramid a lot more money, but once you run out of sales, that's okay, they have 200,000 some odd people just like you to bring them in more money and referrals.You don't stand a chance selling this garbage.  In fact, the average income of a Primerica salesmen is little more than $5000 annually, which is a far cry from the $100,000 income they flaunt in your face as well as even a typical $20,000 minimum wage salary.  Don't waste your time.  If you're a good salesmen, have an endless supply of contacts, and you don't mind pressuring your close friends and family into sales, there's something way better out there for you then Primerica.However, I never dealt with the "cult" aspect of Primerica; to be honest, I figured it would just make for an interesting headline, but it seems like there's an eerie truth to it.  Although I can only base my skepticism on the fact that I received creepy vibes from every single person in that building, it seems like a lot of brainwashing is taking place.  They keep you in line, as I said earlier, by telling you how much money you can make; they do this by having frequent conferences, "motivational" CDs, covering their walls in posters, and moronic representatives influencing you every step of the way.  They do this to motivate you, so reality takes a longer time set in; once it has, you'll be scratching your head wondering, why the hell you spent so much time on such nonsense.

I just got a call from Tal Grossman as well. I was guaranteed that this was not a sales position but a professional leadership role. I know this is probably some kind of scam but I will attend the interview anyways just to see how "professional" everything is.

I will keep you guys updated
