So i get the idea another of these scams and awful work. But it claims to pay 350 euros basic pay a week. Is this bull? Stay clear? Any got any ideas for summer work in dublin for a student? Darn recession.

No they don't!!!!! There's is no basic pay!!

Basically you sell scratch cards! Scratch cards are €3; for every card you sell you get €1!

My friend has an interview with them on Thursday. She's really only going for it because it said 350 euro a week? Doubt it's true! Anyone worked for them before?

I don't wish to appear uncharitable or harsh but I have to ask why are so many people unable to spot a job that while perhaps not literally a ' scam ' is not far off it - commission only , nil expenses , door to door , cold-calling , the sack if you don't hit targets ,etc ?
I would have thought the signs are pretty obvious ?

Princess3

Aww it's terrible.
And I hate the way that they are all over jobs.ie and sometimes on fas.ie, no matter what category you're looking in

Delancey

Yeah , very disappointing that jobs.ie still flood the site with these ' jobs '.

Worked selling scratch cards for The Hanly Centre way back in 1996 for a few hours, the whole experience was seedy and shady even back then. I cant believe that they are still going after all this time.

She went for the interview, and she was told to do a 2 day trial (working for free). She only is available to work part time and told this to the guy who was interviewing her and he said if u work part time u only get commission but full time is 350 a week. What a load of sh*t! She's looking for a different job now haha
