I need a job but I'm not that desperate.
Well I got a call a while ago from a lady named Teresa Ong. By the way she sounded on the phone, she seemed professional, but not quite. She immediately told me that she's in a hurry for a meeting (At that time? Who has work on a Saturday at 6:30 aside from call centers?) that's why she needed me to listen closely to what she had to say. She didn't give much of an introduction of their company; she only said it was a US company whatever and that they are currently searching for highly qualified individuals bla bla bla who could earn like 15-20,000 a month, if hired. She then asked me to grab a planner so that I could jot down their address and her contact number, should I need to ask her anything. She told me to come in business attire on Monday, 3:30pm at 15th floor BDO San Miguel Ave. Branch, Ortigas. I had to cut her in the middle of our conversation (she was talking way too fast and I hated it) to ask her what position was I qualified for. Guess what, she didn't answer me; all that she said was they're going to explain everything once I get there and pass whatever test or interview they subject me into. I also asked whether I should bring a copy of my resume and she said there is no need.
WHATTT? They're recruiting people but they don't need any CVs?
BAM, that was it.
Maybe she thought I was still in school and that I haven't been to any interviews at all. She sure didn't know that I already graduated college because she had my old cellphone number that I wasn't using anymore. This was the 2nd time I received a call like this and that was when I still had that old number with me. I felt weird about it, not knowing the company and the position. And one thing I've learned during my majors and past job interviews, is to always research about the company and the position because you have to know what you're getting yourself into. So I had no choice but to google it.
Then there it was: a long list of forums, blogs, and multiply posts about the said company. I even stumbled about this blog that described the same situation I was in. Haha maybe Teresa Ong thought I wasn't smart enough. I graduated with a degree in Psychology. I may be in need of a job right now but I don't need some stupid scam or whatever it's called. I'm not that desperate.
If you wanna see for yourself, google the address. Do not fall for any of their schemes.
