Supreme Impact interview questions

Stop! Don't waste your time with this company! They are a SCAM! It is a 3-step interview process. I only got through step 2 because I confirmed my suspicion of them being a multi-level marketing scheme mid 2nd interview. It's a scam! They want you to work M-F 11am-9pm, Sat 9am-4pm going door to door. You get paid off of commission. Once they said that, that is where my interview ended. Also, their office is located inside of Zero Energy one of their newly acquired clients. In the first and second interview you spend the first five to ten minutes talking about yourself. First thing that turned me off was when they asked if I was looking for part/full time. I was taken back because the position advertised was for full time. Second thing was when they asked where the city I said I was from was located. Like they were unclear of the city's neighboring them. After I talked about myself for a bit the interviewer began to name drop companies that they do local marketing for (Verizon, AT&T, Angels, etc.). They then mentioned Zero Energy and how they would be helping them with their marketing for clients. I asked if they job was cold calling for door to door and the interviewer said no. He said it was business to business. They were looking to bring back their top candidates from the first round the next day at 9am for second round interviews.(first interview ended) I got called about 30minutes after I left the interview saying I had been selected for the second round. I agree to come in even though I was skeptical. Second interview began the same way as the first. Tell me about yourself, looking for part or full time, where is the city you are from located, how was the commute. Once again these question left a bad taste. He eventually moved on to ask my definition of the difference between direct and indirect marketing. From their he explained the different tiers of the company management. Everyone starts out as a distributor (going door to door trying to convince people to do "free home inspections). Then they get promoted to Account Managers (still going door to door). After that assistant manager and lastly managers. So they want you as a distributor/account manager to go door to door to about 30 homeowner houses a day. Out of those 30homeowners you should secure 12 leads. From leads it goes to audits then results presentations. Out of those 12 leads they'll give it over to the Zero Energy sales people to take over. But you only get paid based off how many of those 12 leads turn into audits (50$ per audit). Then based off how many result in presentations you get a staged pay. 1-5:130$, 6-10:140$, etc. It goes up 10$ for every 5presentations but maxes out at 170$. They try to sell you on making 1190$/week and 61,880$/yearly. Which is total bs. Don't waste your time!

I only had a phone interview with this company, and I'm glad I didn't waste my time commuting. The position I applied for was corporate trainer. I received a call next day and was informed that the company wanted to bring me in for an interview of their "most qualified candidates" on the following day. I took contact info and declined to commit, stating that I would call them if I was available. Then I hit the reviews on glass door, the company profile on LinkedIn, their website, etc. What was shocking was I couldn't find history for the company dating back more than 2 years. The owner's linked in page has several endorsements for skills but all endorsed by the same person, no work history, no posts, 49 connections. The company's Specialties listed on LinkedIn are listed as, "marketing, advertising, sales, business development, clean energy, public relations, technology, community outreach, community engagement, and branding." While the Owner's linked in account has this to say about the company; Company : SUPREME IMPACT Employed:Dec 2015 – Present Duration: 1 yr 11 mos Location: Hammond, Louisiana RESIDENTIAL & COMMERCIAL CLEANING PROFESSIONALS "Supreme Cleaning With Enormous Impact" The company's website is an extremely vague collection of buzzwords and stock photos that gives absolutely zero information about what this company actually does. Their home page reads at the top : "STRONG GROWTH WITH BOLD STROKES - Our dedication to creating tailored solutions has propelled us to success." After an hour of running through reviews, and digging into the company I returned the call to ask some questions of my own. Question #1 I applied for the Corporate Trainer position which is listed online as 40-50k annually. What is the pay structure for this position? Answer: We have many different pay structures. Our employees are commission, or hourly and commission, or salary. Question #2: So the Corporate Training position, which is the one that I applied for is a salaried position, correct? Answer #2. Well that's what the interview is for. It depends on what the manager sees in you and what position they offer you, if they offer you that position. Question #3 How long have you worked for the company. Answer #3: I've been with the company for over three years. Question #4: I couldn't find any information for the company dating back more than two years. Have you changed names or are you using Supreme Impact as a DBA? Answer #4: The office in Cerritos is a newer office. I started work for the company in Chicago and we moved to Los Angeles, leaving part of our company behind in Chicago. We have had multiple offices through the U.S. We are here in out client's building in cerritos, and they are in Chicago with another client. *a note here, prove me wrong, but I have not been able to find any business in Chicago under the name Supreme Impact. In addition, they are in their "client's building". I have no idea what this means but boy does it stink. Question #5: How many people do you have in your company? Answer #5: well we have around 30 to 40 people, and we have other people that aren't here. I think we have around 100 people. Question #7: I reviewed the posting for the job I had applied for. What are the daily duties of the Corporate Trainer position. The label its self was the most descriptive part of the job post. Answer #7: well we operate in two shifts. In the morning there is a lot of people here and a lot of training going on and stuff. We have meetings and coaching sessions, and after that our people work directly with the customers. Question #8: So what is the Corporate Trainer doing through this time? This is an administrative and management position right? Or is this a sales job? Answer #8: Yes you will be starting from the bottom and working your way up to hopefully one day become a manager. So, just for all of you to keep in mind. If you are applying for an Account Manager, Corporate Trainer, Sales Manager, or any other job with the company for that matter, you are actually applying for an entry level sales job in some unknown market, for a company that occupies space in their "client's" building, and changed their name upon opening up the space in Cerritos, and you will be doing so on an unknown pay structure. The interviewer turned interviewee stumbled all over these questions. She really hadn't a clue how to respond to most of them. So glad I took the time to research this employer before I took the 1 hr drive to be "interviewed" for a "Corporate Trainer" position at a "marketing and advertising" company that offers "supreme cleaning with enormous impact". The only thing they'll be cleaning is your pockets, though I'm sure the impact is enormous. Better stay away from this one folks.
