I received an email from a woman with a number to call for an interview. She sent the email at 1am for some reason. I called the number back and was immediately disconnected, called again and it was some sort of free VOIP system with no voicemail box, so I shot her an email with no response. Googled the number and it's got a colorful history, I'll say that. Fast forward to today and I get a call from their hiring manager for an interview, lots of fluff but it's all vague in the details. They've given me several different phone numbers now and all of them are just private cell phones, you'd think a company this big and successful could get a 1-800 and a bigger online presence. They bring people in all at once and you meet with their HR for a few minutes, and then come back later for the follow up interview, which is a bit more like a sales pitch - I'd avoid this one if I were you. They swore up and down over the phone that they're not a door-to-door or outbound telemarketing firm but they absolutely are.

I have visited the website for this company and read it. I have read the company written "press release" in it's entirety. I showed up for an "interview" with Ty, who seems to be the owner of this company. I have no idea what First Line Promotions does and I don't think they do either. I have visited the Twitter and Facebook pages for this company and cannot corroborate any of the claims they make. Actually, I can't even find evidence of a client at all although they claim wild success and their Twitter is 10 months old. Ty was not prepared for my interview. He had not seen my resume until I sat down in his office and was not certain for which position he was interviewing me for. He had to ask me what I applied for. The tacky long exposure of Times Square in the waiting area speaks volumes. He will be sure to tell you how successful he and the company are. I think their 23 Twitter followers can confirm. I am still unsure what this company does or what I applied for. Everything felt very Cutco/Vector Marketing to me. If you're reading this, check out their bizarre corporate-speak website and their self-written press release (by Ty!) before taking time out of your work search to show up for a pre-interview here. Whatever lives here, you don't want to visit.
