    you'll either be flogging vodafone services door to door or hand out samples of goods in supermarkets.

    if you don't reach targets, you are fired on the spot.

    on the other hand if you are a decent salesperson and like cold calling, it may be ok.

    I would avoid them like the plague

    The website is full of complete rubbish sudo sales jargon that has been copied from other such crap websites.

    Its either door to door or direct marketing, neither is easy but if you are the kind of person who is good at it then maybe give it a try.

    Also avoid RK corporation - I almost got sucked in by them ...do a search on boards and get the full details

    Don't think so, but he had a hissy fit and stormed off into the sunset like a spoilled little girl after a mod closed one of his pointless threads.

    Still glad to see him back, he's good banter.

    the article was about RKcorporation , the article was very damning lots of talk of brainwashing workers into working a lot of hours for very little pay but with the promise of great reward if they keep it up.
    hour long motivational talk daily about how great RKcorporation is and if anyone tells them differently they are jealous negative people to be avoided.
    bosses constantly calling workers to make sure they stayed away from negative people who might influence them against RKcorporation.
    i have no idea if they have any links to the company you were dealing with OP but i imagine the nature of the work is the same
