A posting was made about working at home doing data entry and/or customer service. I replied. They sent me info and had me download Hangouts to talk to the boss for interview. After being approved they asked for name, address, and phone number. After getting that they asked for my bank username and password. I said I needed to look into things first and the person started up about me not being skeptical. After the 2nd time of saying I was going to pass on the job the person gave me a long spill about them being a legitimate company then a Bible verse and then said "you are going to have to trust us if you wanna work with us". I said again I already said I was going to pass on the job. Then I was blocked on FB from the person trying to find people for this.

I was reached out to by Fred Morgan via AngelList/email for an online interview with the hiring manager, Julie S. Boorse, and told to email her at [email protected] I was told to join a Google Hangout *immediately* to speak with her; I wasn’t available and scheduled time for the following day. She reached out an hour and a half early on Gchat and began the interview which much to my surprise, was conducted via a chat. After telling me about the company and asking some traditional interview questions, it got weird; first red flag was that she asked me to hold while she took our chat to the "Head Dept" for review. She came back 15 mins later to say I was hired for a Manager of Support, earning $55/hour, with full time work; suspicion ensues. I was told that it was a step-by-step process when I asked if an offer would be emailed since she was asking about me meeting a local supervisor in Austin, TX to receive "materials" – I didn’t want to accept anything until I’d seen an offer. We went back and forth until she asked me to email [email protected] with basic contact info and references. I expressed my suspicions about her not having a LinkedIn profile and her poor grammar, considering she’s a recruiter. She said that she lives in Scottsdale, AZ, at headquarters and would be a personal friend, going as far as recommending we connect on Facebook, and that her LI profile is private for security reasons. She went on to say how excited she was that I would be joining the team for a "simple job that you can even do on your phone" – suspect! When I confronted her and asked to speak to a member of the team that had an online presence, she immediately shut down and accused me of being "rude" after she put me on the best department of the team. This is not typical of any interview scenario for a legitimate job and it wastes about 3 hours of my time as she expected me to be readily available via chat, yet wouldn’t provide a phone number for contact.

Don’t waste your time 🙂

I was initially contacted through text message. Told the interview would be through google hangouts. The interview proceeded where I told information about my employers and previous employers including references. I was briefed by the same person: Mrs. Shawnee Cochran. I had my suspicions but I could not be sure since this was the first time this hasn’t ever happened after creating a profile on relianthiring.com from an Ad on indeed for military and veterans job fair. The person did not want to contact me over the phone when they asked me for my address and email which I gave an old address. They said they would send a check in my name to buy a Mac book air from the company and had to go to a vendor to have softwares installed. I checked this website for their credibility but the persons name did not match anyone listed. Every potential job that has contacted me has been through text message and I believe they are using the ad on indeed to target military personnel and or veterans. I messaged today after being contacted by a different company that I did not want to proceed with any employment and to cancel anything in my name.
