I had a second round interview for an entry-level Investment Analyst position with OMG exactly 2 weeks ago.

Today I got a call from a woman with Primerica (financial services) saying she was given my info & that they were interested in me. We had a mini chat & we set up a longer one for tomorrow.

Do you think OMG gave my info out instead of a direct no? Is it a good sign she reached out to me so fast? Is she a headhunter or just a recruiter?

Sorry for the all the Qs, I'm just excited lmao

In regards to other comments:

If Primerica were doing something illegal (like Pyramid/Ponzi Schemes) they would have been stopped a long time ago

I have had my investments with them for well over a decade and a half, they have never done me wrong.

When it comes to any financial services company, you can look them up with your state's financial services department or FINRA's broker check as well as the Better Business Bureau

Yep... MLM scam. They have been around for years. Say away and don’t worry about even being polite about it.

She was given your info from someone you probably went to hs with.

Or from googling

I’d stay away from Primerica if I were you.

In addition to staying away from Primerica (lol), follow up with OMG! Since last week was thanksgiving, it’s essentially been one week - they should have a good idea of where they stand. channel your excited energy into writing a brief email about why you want to work for them and why you’d be a good fit. a solid note like this after a second round interview goes a long way.

Only follow up with HR, not the team. Things are usually very slow during this time of year in terms of hiring.

Did she say that OMG gave her your info? Or just “someone”?

That’s a sales tactic. She didn’t get it from OMG
