Indeed, I was actually stupid enough to follow through with an interview for them. As soon as they started describing it and how it worked and the fact that you had to buy the products you were demoing I walked out. They target college kids and basically make more money off of selling the product to kids to use as examples rather than selling the product to consumers. Seriously a crock of shit company.

I voted to keep the hawk. Not like you're hurting anyone with it.

I have an interview for some Marketing place up in the NW section of Miami (I live in the SW section). Anyway, I have a Mohawk, and I REALLY need a job. This place is aimed towards students and what not. I forget the link, but it's called like "Vector Marketing" or something like that. Point is, should I cut it off before, or should I go and inform them that I will cut it off if they want me to, but would prefer to keep it?

POLE IS FOLLOWED

You fucking idiot, it's not marketing.

It's selling cutco cutlerly (knives)... you only make money off commission. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif

I'd just quit posting if I were you...

I almost worked for Vector marketing... and it sucked ***.

To start off, you have to buy your own knives from them, which I'm sure is how they get most of their sales. Pretty clever actually.

Next, you have to come up with your own clients. You do not get 17 an hour, you get $17 per base appointment.. which is very different. You have to drive to your prospective client's house and give them a demonstration on how everything works. Keep in mind, if you can't come up with new people every week that want to buy $400 worth of knives every week, you're screwed.

It's a bullshit job.

I'm guilty of not researching into them. But, I can understand how I'm an idiot since it has "MARKETING" in the title.

I'm not gunna do it, though, as said clearly after like the third post.

Oh shit, thats who "markets" cutco knives....I went to one of their gig when I was a kid. A couple friends and I went, they didn't tell us anything, said it wasn't door to door sales. Showed up to a classroom of other people that got lied too.

Once I figured out it was selling knives door to door I was a rude prick making fun of their gimmicks until the guy kicked me out of the orientation gig.

Hah, I may look for an orientation just to have fun with those scammers.

A 2 minute google search reveals that you probably don't want to work for that company, which it appears you've already figured out.
But to answer the original question; You should cut your hair if you're out looking for a semi-serious job.

FWIW, my 5yr old son has a mohawk aswell.

And a better resume as well.

I would go there, with hair as is, demand a lot of money, drink and eat whatever is in the canteen area.

Smoke while your waiting...

Maybe use the restroom and make a mess...

Keep mesing up the interviewers name.. like if its tom, call him bob..when he corrects you, say sorry bob...

Ask to borrow $10 bucks for a cab home..

comment on how hot (women in office) are and you would tap that so hard...

try to touch the interviewer as much as possible. Move your chair close as possible to accomplish that.

Ask if they do random drug testing, cause that would **** for you..

What does the Mohawk look like when It's not spiked?

Certain niches of marketing are artsy types anyways, as long as

you clean up good and have a kick-*** portfolio, that's what matters.

lmao.

Oh, and cut your hair. Your goal should be to make all contacts that you make positive. Years from now if you are looking to do business with / become employed by a company and you recognize someone from your college days you want that to give you an advantage. You don't want to have to think, "oh shit, that guy knows me."

dont cut it for a cheesy sales job like that. If you do take the job(its door to door you will get a chance) the mohawk will help you in your sales. Try it out if you can hustle crap you will make lots of cash. Its all about going out and talking to as many people as you can. I think everyone should try sales at one point if you got it you got it
