Description

they approached me for a job interview. i googled thrive and thought things were a little off but let it go. they call me for the interview, sound very professional, offer me way more than they should for the position and promised a $5000 sign on bonus as well as requesting a “retainer” of $100. i visited their website and clicked their “book appointment” button, which just took me to some random outlook webpage that wouldn’t load. when i click on their phone number (18887354354) an automated message says the number is not available. when i asked them about the “retainer” they said it was for the equipment (it’s a remote position) and that the total is $400 but they’re only asking for $100 upfront. i asked about the high salary and they stated it was because they had grant money from Progressive. additionally, when i googled the number they called me from, the internet’s says she’s a real estate agent.
