Just a heads up: I had an interview with Benet in Jacksonville FL. Totally misleading from description in ziprecruiter (see posting below).
Turns out they want you to push covid tests (free if insured) to anyone and anywhere you can. Basicallyhang out in parking lots. Payment is $20/test. Wasn't anything that they advertised $20-30/hr +commissions/bonus, potential 80k 1st yr).

I meannnn, “self-motivated to market services to increase profitability” is corporate-speak for what you described 😂 Not really misleading, just not what you expected. There are way shadier employers with far more scammy ways (they didn’t make you pay to be trained or take a class, you weren’t trying to recruit down line ala MLM, etc)

Yikes. Are people even taking covid tests anymore? That definitely sounds like a dead end street. At least you found out before you accepted an offer and took the job.

Wow. That is a giant red flag. I would not want to do that.

And that’s our money they are trying to encourage people to spend taxpayers dollars on “free” covid tests!

Additional Posts in Sales

Hello, first post here. Outside sales, merchant services/card processing. I’m primarily a welder but I work 4 10-hour shifts typically then I try sales the last three days. I’ve done it long enough to where I’m confident and comfortable going to new businesses, establishing some rapport with business owners. But it seems like a lot of businesses see this as a waste of time, even adding services and cutting costs. I guess either I’m looking for advice or considering not doing this anymore.

Think of these as different roles and how many hours the job takes to be successful in it to make that amount in your W2. Working more will not make you more and working less gets your fired.
