I recently interviewed for a rep position here and I had a very strange experience. I wanted to warn others who might fall for trick that I did.

The interview was mostly normal at first with questions like "tell me about a time when you...". The only thing a little different was the manager and the other person in the room made several remarks about how close the district was and how they like to hang out and party together.

As we were nearing the end of the interview, the manager said he thought I might fit in with the group and asked if I could think of my teammates as friends. I said that I could.

Then he said he and Mike (the other person with him) were going to do a couple of lines of coke and asked if I would join them. I was a little shocked and I kind of laughed nervously. Then the manager said his district worked hard and played hard and they wanted to see how I might fit in. All this time he was cutting some lines on a drink tray in the room.

So I said, "Sure". I figured I kind of had to prove myself. He handed me the tray and a rolled up dollar bill and said, "guests first".

So snorted the line and handed it back to him. When I did his face turned cold and he said. "You can go now. We don't need drug addicts on our team".

I laughed again thinking he was joking. But he walked to the door opened it and pointed out without saying another word.

I wouldn't want to work for an asshole like that anyway, but I thought I would warn others.
 




Weird almost the exact same interview. The two women asked if I could think of my district as friends but added "with benefits". I said yes, they demanded that I service them over and over again. Then they said they couldn't have sex fiends on the team and didnt offer me the role !
 




Wow, these experiences sound very similar to what happened to me. After a great interview, the two guys said there was just one more hurdle. We went downstairs, got into their car and drove to a convenience store.

In the parking lot they said they needed to see if I had balls before hiring me. They gave me a .38 and a detail bag and said to go inside and rob the store. I just figured it had to be a big joke to see if I knew how to play along with the team. So I went inside with pantyhose (which they had give me) over my head, pulled the gun and told the guy behind the counter to empty the register.

Thinking it was a big joke I was laughing, but I noticed the poor bastard behind the counter looked terrified. When I got back outside, one of the guys grabbed the gun and the bag and said, "We cant have a fucking common criminal on our team".

Then he jumped in the car and they fish-tailed out of the parking lot. I had to flee on foot and spend the night in a drain pipe to avoid being arrested. I had almost started to think that the whole thing was a set-up and the guys didn't even work for Merck. Now I see it is just a technique to weed out applicants and that I apparently failed the test.
 




this shit is hilarious! However I have heard crazy shit from a rep in my training class that works in Souther CA. She said her manager was a drug addict. I wonder if he does shit like this
 




Fairy tales. Even if they weren't, what candidate would be that freaking stupid to do what was asked.
Scenario 1: call the cops/DEA and get these two assholes fired and put in jail. Sue Merck. Scenario
2, tape the f?c$ request on your phone, video tape them performing, and sue the shot out Merck. My manager was a nympho. I can't tell you this things she did to me in the weirdest places, but I got great evaluations. great raises, offers for promotions, etc. Why leave this gig? Too good to be true. Sex in the am, noon, and pm. When I get tired of her, I'll sue Merck.
