Internet Analysis

Information
Company advertise in newspaper, looking for IT personal. Called them, they said it to search & analyze data for customer, ask me to go for interview.

During interview, they said training will be provided, and they need someone urgent. It is actually commodity trading (trading cocoa, palm oil, coffee beans and so on.) They said all data is thru the internet, from US. This was 9 years back, I forget about the company name, it's something like blabla Worldwide.

Information
This company frequently advertise in jobstreet. It's a head hunter company. I applied thru website, that time I was jobless. They call me up for interview, I was so happy. Step into the room, the guy who interview me, looks very professional, all questions he asked, is related to the requirement of the job.

End of interview, he said my skillset was a perfect match for couple of his clients. But, he need me to become his member, in order for him to forward my resume to his client. Member fees RM15. After all this effort, of course I won't pull out because of this RM15, so I pay to join as member. Until now, I never hear from him, and this was 6 years ago.

As I remember, I need to fill up a log book when I step into the office, I was the 120th interviewee, for that day. Let say 1000 members he get in 1 day, and that is RM1500. wtf lol

PR Officer RM3000-RM5000 per month

Information
My brother saw this advertisement in newspaper, there is no company name, just title & phone number. He call the phone and that Mr. X ask him to meet infront of Sunway Pyramid main door. He waited there for 15 minutes, notice there is a car stopping nearby. It was that Mr. X. He call my brother to enter his car, and interview in there.

Mr. X straight to the point and said, the position is actually Man Whore. Mr. X need to see the candidate, must be presentable and muscular, that's why he stop nearby to check out his candidate, if not good, he will drove off and call off the interview.

Customers mostly professional, doctor, lawyer, and most importantly, all are man. When there is a customer, Mr. X will call his staff to meetup with the client, per meeting is earning RM50. When they in the hotel, Mr. X said staff must kiss the client, and whatever service that comes after that, it's up to the staff, and negotiate with the client, 100% in the pocket.

My brother asking how about girl's customer, Mr. X said those girl who getting this service mostly gangster's mistress, and girl too easy to fall in-love, and create lots of issues. Guy market is new and yet to explore more.

Hye LYN forummers,

wow I just googled the company's name and this is the 1st thing I stumbled upon o.O I'm quite surprised by how much scams there is out there.

Now this is my story, do please help me identify whether this is possibly fraud or not, seeing there isn;t any clear answer from all the thread I've read so far about this company. Thx!

Yesterday I called to enquire about the vacancies (as advertised in The Star) for their management or graduate trainee position. (in quite a desperate search for a job) salary was within range too. Asked for Lenny Laura as seen on paper but someone else entertained instead. She said the vacancies was still available and to attend the interview the next morning at Plaza Permata. I asked for the company name but they didn't really replied to my answer, and instead, they asked to attend the interview the next morning.

Okay so I was suspicious but I decided to give a try anyway. So I've attended the interview this morning and I just come across their company name (Infinity Rank Sdn. Bhd.) During the interview with Ms Yati, she explained that the company deals as a middle people to advertised products from other company. Currently they are expanding the bsns to 25 other branches (i was a bit taken aback here, coz I've never really heard of the company name before). They even had Jusco and other reputable company's award certificate in that room.

She explained further that there are 3 stages for the graduate trainee position. 1st is to go venture into the marketing section (meaning to go to events and stuff) for the 1st 2 months. Later train in the HR and the last, into administration sector for the 1st how many months I'm not too clear. But anyhow, they will process the application 1st before asking you to come for a second interview. They called me the same evening asking whether I am still interested in the position. I said yes,  and she later asked me to report 8.45 in the morning tomorrow, wear formal attires and bring a pen and a notebook. she reminded me that it would be a full day smth tomorrow (not so sure here coz the line was bad.) but basically i have to leave my day free for the company i guess.

Now at this point of time, i wanted to know more of the company, so i googled about it and stumbled upon to this forum.

What's do you guys think?
