GeniusAssociation Reports & Reviews (1)

I was offered Administrative Assistant role.

1. they interviewed me for 6 minutes, they only asked me about my last job position. They never asked me if I know anything about their type of business or their company.

2. I was offerend job within a week (whole process took 4-5 days).

3. I read news article explaining this is a scam so I did not fall for it. But I would like to scare all the info I have.

4. When I asked them if they can pay me per project or per assignment completed. They did not know what to say to me so they cut ties.

6. They told me they will open office in two months time in Mississauga.

7. They told me I will have 1 month probation $35/hr. After probation $38/hr. They said I will have dental and insurance. But contract is not specific enough. It doe snot specify how much coverage I will have. OR up to what amount.

8. They asked me to keep in touch with them over TELEGRAM and Email. I was asked to download TELEGRAM on my phone and computer.

9. I was asked to report when I am starting work (9am) and when I am going on lunch or any breaks and when I am done work. ALL reports were done over TELEGRAM. I only worked 1day. and I never sent them my research because I saw more information about them in the news article. IT WAS BY MISTAKE TOO. Their website was down for 5 minutes and I tried to go on their website just before I finished my "day of work" and I could not find their website so I tried to google it and that is when I saw new report.

I sent Genius Associaiton numerous emails (over the weekend, between my 1st day of work and potential 2nd day of work). AND no one replied. Lady only called me to tell me she will look into my emails and she never got back to me.

SHE DID NOT KNOW WHAT TO SAY TO ME.

- I confronted her about her scam.

I spoke on the phone with her about it and she stuttered and was very distressed.
