Mislead job

Insurance sales agent

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Has a big self e learning platform where you can develop your skills and learn new skills at your own leisure.

Cons

This role requires you to overwork - you are constantly held on a call after your shift and company will only pay you for 15 min interval therefore if you finished at 6.10pm you only get paid 15 mins overtime 2 months later. The role also requires you to do a long Saturday shift without a day of in the week therefore you could be working 6 days a week for two weekends in a row again this is not in your contract and you have no choice but to do it or leave. The overtime again is paid two months later. I don't think this employer is a people person you are constantly monitored for everything and dragged to give up weekends!
