"Opportunity is there for a career driven only person"
What do you like about working at Country Financial?
"The opportunity to make a great living is there. If you are a hard worker willing to sacrifice your personal schedule and life, you will be more successful. There was some flexibility to your schedule, but that is where a person not disciplined can get into trouble. You have to be a self starter, there is no babysitting, and if you are willing to take it upon yourself to be held accountable, you will find its great."
Do you have any tips for others interviewing with this company?
"Look yourself hard in the mirror, and ask yourself if you are dedicated enough to work 60+ hours a week, calling friends and family to solicit sales, and are willing to sacrifice your personal life to get your career started. If you are, then its a good company, if you are a person that cares what everyone else thinks about you, its not a job for you."
What don't you like about working at Country Financial?
"In order to be successful, there is a lot of sacrifice, and it is hard on family if you are expected to be around. You need to put in 60 hours plus a week prospecting, networking, and cold calling to have a chance, and if you can't dedicate that time you will not be successful. You will also be expected to call friends and family to sell them products, and most likely you will lose some friends that don't want to be sold anything."
What suggestions do you have for management?
"Do not paint a pretty picture about how rich you can be, be hard and brutally honest on how hard it is to be successful. The amount of time and sacrifice that will be required was not stressed in my interview, instead I was built up to believe it would be easy to make 150K+ and have fun doing it. Also, stress how leads and cold calling works, if a prospective agent can't see themselves calling strangers and getting shot down 90% of the time, then don't hire these people, I saw this frequently."

What do you like about working at AT&T?
"I like assisting customers and building relationships with other agents. AT&T gave me a learning experience as to how corporate America really works. It has sharpened and honed my communication skills both off the phone and on. My leadership skills also improved when I was given opportunities there."
Do you have any tips for others interviewing with this company?
"We are undergoing a new transition in which they are not hiring at this time. We all are becoming employees of a new company that is contracted specifically for AT&T. If you have the opportunity, though, then always have an open mind. AT&T can be a fun place to work at and a really enjoyable experience. Unlike other call centers, the services we provide are not here in Arizona. You must be willing to learn from the technicians or customers at times. Team work is important, as well as patience. Pay attention to detail. AT&T can be the right stepping stone for the right person."
What don't you like about working at AT&T?
"I am a contractor and we were treated very differently from the full time employees. The business politics of the environment were also distasteful - there was no pay raise in almost 3 years, no benefits or time off, and we were responsible for following metrics that weren't correct."
What suggestions do you have for management?
"Realize that the agents love the work and are more than happy to do it. They would love to be treated like humans and not threatened with their jobs every day due to stats that are incorrect."

What do you like about working at Combined Insurance?
"Nothing this was the by far lowest form of employment I have ever attempted. The slogan GIVE US A YEAR AND WE WILL BLEED YOU DRY Should be the logo!"
Do you have any tips for others interviewing with this company?
"Dont do it! I now sell carpet and flooring as an independent contractor. My appointments are set by the company, I cold call when I WANT TO, and I average 1500-2500 a week even in this economy."
What suggestions do you have for management?
"Spend some of the money you guys keep bragging about having, on advertising and pre set appointments from the people who call in NOT and I repeat NOT cold calling as that dinosaur mentality tried to brainwash all those stupid people. Cold calling should be a secondary extra for the job. Not the only way, that's foolish and backwards thinking!"
