      Canvasser Interview

      8 Sept 2014
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Chicago, IL
      Declined offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Direct Energy (Chicago, IL) in Aug 2013

      Interview

      Initial Interview was very brief--too brief. Second Interview was long and a group setting--they wanted all of my identifying information right then and there... social security number, everything. I denied them that. Initiation/training was good for a bit... then the trainer invited two of us into his apartment. This company is unethical and sketchy. You can't go to a nice neighborhood and canvas, you go to poor ones... so you can take advantage of desperation. Do not fall for this. I almost did until I spoke to my father about it and he demanded that I not take the job as it is blatantly taking advantage of less fortunate people. They are offering a fixed rate on energy. But what happens when the market drops? You are still paying that higher amount. Keep that in mind. Let this be a warning to consumers as well. Also the one of the guys in charge of hiring has DWI charges on google.

      Question 1

      Nothing. It's pretty mindless.
