I saw an advertisement on the internet that Dish Network was hiring. Before you fill out any paperwork you are given an accessment test. They do not tell you before you begin how long this will take which is upseting because the test has so many parts it can take 2 to 3 hours to complete. Then, when you pass the test you are asked to pick a date for the interview. After you pick a date for the interview, they confirm this by email and give you a link to fill out the paperwork.
When you arrive at the interview, prepare to be there 3 to 4 more hours and take part 2 of the assessment. In the one on one interview - they were not really interested in what you had accomplished in previous jobs. In fact, the interviewer that I had led me to believe they could not have cared less. The 2 negatives that I felt envolved misrepresenting the job and placed you in a precarious position are as follows. 1) The job description states that everyone in this position starts at $12.00 per hour. The interviewer asked me if I would accept a lower starting wage and if so what is the least I would consider working for. I informed the interviewer ( and they had knowledege that my previous job had earned me substantially more) that the job description indicated everyone started at $12.00 per hour so that is what I put down. I feel it is less than honest to ask people that question when they already stated that everyone starts at $12 per hour. 2) (They, like all employers, inform you that this is an at will position that they or you can terminate employment for any reason at any time.) The next question in interviewer asks: Is there any reason why you would not want to take out a subscription with Dish Network. (They give you a monthly coupon toward the America's Top 250 subscription which is $69.99+ per month) This sounds great as long as you have the job. The subscription is for 2 years - that translates into a potential $1679.76+ that you are on the hook for if the employment does not work out. If you say no - you might not get the job! There ought to be a law, don't you think. Both of these questions shook my confidence in this company - I am glad I did not get the job or the financial debt!
