I would strongly recommend staying far away from this company. They are careful to never actually lie about their positions or the job, but the picture they paint is definitely much different than reality. Here's the real deal: They advertise several different positions online (event coordinator, public relations assistant, retail sales associate, customer service coordinator), but it's all the same job, there is no difference in these positions once you are actually hired.
The entry-level for every person is working inside of a Sam's or Costco at a table or booth, talking to people that walk by trying to get them interested in their products. They say that it's focused on marketing, not sales, but employees are judged on their sales--There is an hourly rate, but the goal is to get employees making commission, so obviously sales is a large part of the job.
They offer growth opportunity, "a fast-track to management," to every employee. The reality is that very few people will ever make it to this point. To get to this point you have to be willing to work incredibly long hours, including nights and weekends, for minimum wage, and drink the koolaid of their marketing systems. Very, very few people will actually stay long enough to get promoted because they quickly become disillusioned with the job.
Because so many people realize quickly once they begin that this is not the job they were promised, or that the low pay is not worth the time they are being asked to put in, the turnover at this company is tremendous. In the space of a few months, at least 10 employees quit. This is why they are having to constantly hire new employees. They will tell you on the phone they are only doing interviews that day, but every morning I walked in for weeks and heard the same thing. They must wind up interviewing at least 15 people a day, and are only able to get a few people to actually accept the position, and then most of these people quit within a week.
Newsflash to management: the reason you have such high turnover isn't because you're an elite company, or only keep the hardest working, the "best of the best,"--it's because people realize that the promise of the job is nothing like the day-to-day, and people only work here when they can't find anything else, and quit as soon as possible. I'm not sure you can call yourself a growing, successful company if you can barely keep employees and vastly more people quit then stay on for more than a few weeks. If you're having to sugar coat your job descriptions, and constantly interview and hire people, the problem is with your company and management, not with the people you're trying to hire.
