Negative Experience
Easy Interview
Application
I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at ECS Financial Services (Columbus, OH) in Aug 2020
Interview
These are group lectures, where you are informed about the company, and asked little to no questions about your interest or qualifications. It’s presented as high-paying customer service, but it’s actually insurance sales. You are asked to pay for your own background checks, licenses, etc., and the paid training is as low as $300/week while you practice pitching on your friends and family. It’s scammy at worst, hard work for no pay at best.
