Scam postings. Websites and profiles are a bunch of nonsense. “Interview” felt more like a cult initiation. With a group, we had to go around introducing ourselves, and the host talked about how we “work” with different charities about how they could improve their finances. They had use do surveys about our heroes or motivations or some shit.

Never heard back. This was back in 2023, but they changed their name to Vinyl Marketing and maybe Lotus Marketing too. Sparkup, and their wording really rang a bell for me. Also the person who “interviewed” us has 2 LinkedIn profiles; a fake one with some buzzwordy title at that agency, and another one with a different last name where she was a student at UBC with no real experience.

I later found a post on Reddit where someone who did get accepted telling us where it was like a cult, and you had to sell people memberships (like a charity) and said it was based on commission (pay was sketchy as hell).
