THANK GOODNESS I checked it out, the audacity. He was so pleasant from the start, and his script seemed so perfectly rehearsed that a mini red flag went up in my head, but then he continued to talk and talk about the opportunity, how no financial background is required, and that all I need was a love for people, good interpersonal and communication skills, and pretty much all of the other laundry terms that job seekers put on their resumes. So, it was hard to accept the interview because he made me feel so confident and optimistic about being a "leader" and a part of "the biggest financial institution in the world". My sister and her close friend both attended the first interview and confirmed that it was highly unprofessional. The questions that they asked were basic personality questions, hardly the grilling that one would expect from a solid company. I am supposed to go to my interview tomorrow, and if "Tal Grossman" had left a number to contact them if anything should arise, I would've had the courtesy to let them know I wasn't interested, but they didn't. So? Again, thank goodness I did my research!

Also, for those genuinely looking for the "truth", just keep doing your research, go with your instincts, and be weary of  the super positive comments such as the ones below, because they too might be hired by Primerica or similar companies, doing damage control on helpful and informative sites such as these.

Good luck to those still looking for employment!
Stay positive!!!

Oh yeah... I almost forgot... Strawberry's web link doesn't show many major financial institutions ,mainly because it's not a credible link.  It doesn't have info for London Life, Clarica and many other top ten insurers/investors - but like Primerica they are not Multi-Level Marketers, they operate in the financial service field!

This response is just so profesionl (mispell intential) for a Vice President, wow I want to meet all the rest of you great people at Primerica, how could you not with this ttype of great attitidue.

me too just received call from this #
was unable to hear anything

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.
