Desired Skills:
To succeed, you must be a self-motivated, well organized person and a skilled speaker. This position requires that you accomplish the assignments clearly and intelligibly within the defined terms and set priorities intelligently. The appropriate candidate will become an integral part of our Company's development. You will succeed if you can work remotely and efficiently and be able to efficiently plan short trips in your local area.
Probation Period Challenges:
During the probationary period, you will learn how to accomplish the assigned purchases on the Company behalf. You will also learn how to complete your entrusted duties accurately, properly, within stringent guidelines, and within agreed time frames. You will be required to act in accordance with the high standards of business process control as adopted by Contract Commerz SA in Switzerland. Training will be accomplished by requiring assignments to purchase goods available in stores that are not exclusive to the United States. However, challenges will be programmed in each assignment and will increase in difficulty. For example, you will be assigned purchases that require goods of limited quantity and purchases across several retailers to complete quantity requirements. Assignments can normally be completed in 1-2 hours, easily within your spare time. Also, when purchasing large oversized items, organization, delivery and reshipment efficiencies will be essential. Please find below the detailed description of a typical first assignment under the probationary period:

Step 1: You and your Supervisor determine all required items to purchase. This will include the assignment terms, total purchase amounts and their delivery terms and purchase locations.

Step 2: You will purchase the required items from the local or online retailers with the monies forwarded in advance to your account. All items will be defined as allowed for the export without restriction. The first assignment will require purchasing digital items such as Gift Cards from a large retailer in the US, e.g. Walmart. These gift cards will be used to purchase exclusive products and services in US for Asian and Eastern Europe customers. Our customers will save up to 200% on the cost of some products using these gift cards and our third party reshipping services. These savings are possible due to the different taxation systems and high import duties paid by official importers. Most US retailers such as BestBuy, Walmart, Target, Home Depot do not allow purchases using addresses outside of US and credit cards issued by foreign banks. The purchased items may differ and we will always forward the type and the quantity of items beforehand. We will always respect your views and input. We have a large workload and operate in many countries, if you are not able to purchase some of the items, we have many options and can always propose alternatives.

Step 3: You will send us scans and/or pictures of the purchased Gift cards by email. If the purchased items can’t be sent by email, then you will send those items by mail, and of course, all postage expenses will be paid by us.

Step 4: You will make a report regarding the completed assignment. The report form will be provided to you in advance.

Step 5: Move on to the next assignment.

As we all know, job interviews are intensely stressful occasions. If you REALLY want the job, the stakes are also incredibly high and you might feel a slight mistake could cost you the chance at landing the job. Given the pressure, some people are tempted to fudge their accomplishments and background a bit. They figure if adding a few years of experience that they'll triumph over other candidates, and what the interviewer doesn't know won't hurt them, right? WRONG

Lying is a risky strategy with huge repercussions. As more social networks surface more and more information and recruiting tools that dig into candidates' work history become more sophisticated. It becomes easier to bring lies to light.

There are better ways to put your best capabilities and experience on display. If you fib on the following in an interview, it will come back to haunt you.

1. Education You went to college but did not finish, yet you may be tempted to say you finished a degree. The company you interview for will verify your degree with college transcripts and calling the alumni board.

So when in doubt - be honest about your education.

1. Your Accomplishments During the interview, you will be asked about your skill set and accomplishments with the previous/current company. Again, it's tempting to inflate your accomplishments, however, hiring managers will check out your claims in detail.

In another scenario - if you're hired on strength of false accomplishments, you may be expected to exhibit similar performance. You'll only be setting yourself up for failure.

1. What you're being Paid This is one of the trickiest parts of an interview. Some interviewers will ask you flat out - what are you making now? It's best to offer a range or tell them that your salary is competitive with the industry. Inflating a number is a BAD idea.

What you love to do
It's important to break down your passion and goals, however telling an interviewer that you love something that you don't really like, can result in disaster. Let's say you tell an interviewer that you love finding and destroying all kinds of software vulnerabilities - then once you're hired, they put you on a heavy-bug hunting detail. And now you're stuck doing something you hate.

Whether you were Fired
Sometimes a hiring manager will ask you flat out if you were fired from your last job. Don't lie. Previous employers will often tell a recruiter or hiring manager only dates of your employment and not the reason you left. However, a prospective employer can still find out reasons for your termination from any number of sources.

So if you are asked this question - don't panic. It's important to keep control and don't come off as defensive. Say that you weren't a good fit for your last organization and that you learned some good lessons - provide examples and that you're ready to move on. :)

No badly how much you want the job, inflating your talents, skillset, accomplishments, will only reflect badly on you. So be honest and true to yourself. After all, you are selling yourself, so why not be authentic? And once you are hired, you can learn new skill and will be able to add new accomplishements to your resume.

This company sends me an email every week with an opportunity to interview for an account manager position.

They claim to have reviewed my resume on Monster and believe I have the skills necessary to perform the work.

What they don't seem to know is that I had interviewed with this same company last year for a training manager position that turned out to be a life insurance sales position that is strictly commission.

Look at the job description. Can you see any red flags?

(I will reply with the answers in a bit. I just want to help some folks learn to scrutinize job ads and interview requests in the process.)

I'm looking for a remote position because I live in a small town where there are few opportunities. I got pretty far in the interview process with a company that I really wanted to work for. I got my hopes up a lot, thinking that if I was all in that it would show and I would be hired.
I found out yesterday that I did not get it. I am crushed. I don't know where to go from here. This is the closest I've gotten in months of looking. I know that there is a stigma around looking for Remote jobs, but there seem to be a ton of legitimate ones out there. So why can't I find one that I can get?
I am just frustrated and so sad. My current position, while I understand that I am lucky to be currently employed, is incredibly toxic and every day that I am there is harder and harder. I'm trying to work myself up this morning to just make it through the day now that the possibility of this other great position is now gone.

I received this in my email box today:
We are happy and very excited about the potential you and your experience will bring to the table!
XXX-XXX is offering you to join our business and help it grow working distantly and then in a new office.
You will be working from your home office during your probationary period (3-4 weeks). At the end of the probationary period you will have earned $1,920......

I am sure that this is a scam but I wanted to let people know that scammers are still out there.

I had an interview this morning w/ Kimberly Walter with TecAlliance; supposedly the company was opening offices in my area and they wanted people to work from home getting the business off the ground and then assisting in setting up the office. I was to set up an account on Hangout and the interview took place on there. Instead of video conferencing, she used the instant messaging feature. I was offered the job and great benefits, felxible hours, 401k, etc. They would send me a check to set up my home office and sge ratled off a list of things I would need. I asked where the home office was located out of and she told me South Jordan, UT. After the interview I called the home office and was told that it was a scam and that they were not opening office in my area.

Everyone lookout for Patients Like Me!! They contacted me via text message and claimed to have viewed my application on the va workforce website and talked to me about the job working from home because they were coming to my area soon! I felt it was a scam when they did an interview via google hangouts and offered me a job making $33 hour to do MS excel and access...i have been thru nursing school and we do not make that much! Also i contacted the workforce and they can view everyone that has looked at my information. No Patients Like Me...when i asked this Martin Coulter for the companys number because i thought it was a scam he asked me for my number! And name of my bank! Beware of anyone trying to contact you thru this company. I dont know how many ppl they contacted that actually gave them their info!! And my heart hurts for the people that did! I told them if they tried to contact me in anyway i was going to the police! Lookout please! And beware of ANYONE you give your info too! VA workforce said it came from indeed.com so if you use this website, search for the jobs themselves do NOT go thru this website!!
