Description
I applied for a job in indeed and received an email fairly quickly requesting i schedule a.zoom interview. I scheduled and attended. It was actually a "group interview" but he (Jacob - founder) did all the talking. He was convincing but was talking about a completely different job than the one I applied for which did make me question, but the job he pitched seemed so perfect. Too good to be true. It was. The zoom call lasted over an hour and a half. He said in order to begin work since every single person was offered the job there was mandatory insurance. $97.00 a mo th. After initial payment it would. Come directly out of weekly paycheck. In order to proceed and onboard the payment had to be made and I stupidly made it. Feel like a fool. I guess I am a fool. Please don't make the same mistake. Learn from me. I borrowed the money and promised to pay it back in 2 weeks from first check which will never come. The amount of effort put into this it would be easier for the jerk to get an actual job. Bad karma coming his way!
