I was in a bid to secure a better job anywhere in Lagos when I ran across a posted bill around Toyin Street, Ikeja. It requested for applicant who could work in a manufacturing company with daily payment of #3,500 after work. Though I was observing it might not be real but I gave a trial. When I called the number on d paper, a lady picked it and she directed me to come for an interview by 7:30am today. She never requested my C.V. In the course of deliberation whether or not I should attend, I called her around 8am the next day if I could still make the interview and she answered in affirmation.

When I got to the venue, the scene I was observed was confusing, as it looks like young people were on the pitch, no company building,no sign post. While some people were lecturing others one on one, some were to train people to sing and do exercise (Like NYSC Orientation Camp). When a young lady at the entrance asked of my mission, I told her I was there on an interview of #3,500 daily pay job. Another woman was assigned to sit me down and start lecturing me on the object of the company. I was a bit confused. I wasn't too comfortable with the atmosphere when the lecture started. It was two hours after the interpersonal lecture started that the company was all about promoting health Products and winning new members into GNLD and i had to pay #10,600 to be a member. No daily pay. No manufacturing company. My time wasted. Transport fare wasted. I just pretended like all was well. As I left in regret, I was held by a lady to fill the membership form. I filled it with a fake name, different phone contact and left.
lols, i experienced the same thing early this yr, january, they asked for money for so, so so this, he started mentioning lionel messi, dangota qnd bill gate, omo i escaped, u won't use me to be as rich as them

Please!!! Before you go to for an interview or test, talk to someone about it. It is very important so u don't go and waste ur time and little money. God will provide a good job for you.

Na wao. My nephew suffered the same fate. He traveled all the way from Lagos to PH and even slept in a hotel. He visited the venue of the supposed interview the following day only to discover it's about GNLD. He didn't find it funny. What they normally do these days is to advertise for 3k per day then they write under the notice "Not GLND" please note the difference between GNLD and GLND. These people don't zoom to ever run out of ideas.
I had in a number of occasion come across their supposed marketers literally begging for either alms or asking for a lift saying that they got stranded where they went for sales but couldn't make any sales hence their predicament.
This country sef

True talk, they come to where we drink beer every evening begging us to a product or the other and mostly young girls who always try to seduce konji-lized men to help them buy atleast N100 worth of product. At night around ATM points you will see some of them carrying backpacks begging for tfare to their destination. This breaks my heart always

Re: How I Was Almost Scammed In A Job Interview. by Mathias2015(m): 1:06am On Jul 22, 2016
Good morning everyone in the house! I want to clear some fact about GNLD. I'm one of the member of GNLD. I want to speak only for the group(company) i belong to here in PH and branches in Asaba. GNLD have many companies working for her. So, all of them have their different mode of operations/practices. THE MODE OF OPERATION/PRACTICE OF THE COMPANY THAT I BELONG TO HERE IN PORT HARCOURT ARE AS FOLLOWS. It relay mainly on "THE BUSINESS OF THE 21TH CENTURY. BY ROBERT KIYOSAKI". Get a copy of it and read it. We have about 12 branches here in PH. Mode of recruitment is by talking to PPLE one-on-one, or sending an invitation txt massage to the person. Simple as "You are invited for an interview on a date at so so location". We dn't specify salary in our invitation text or advert. We dn't put salary, becos SALARY, which is SOMETHING ALWAYS LOW AND REDUCULES YOU is FIX and also a temperal solution to a permanent problem. But here in this organization we recieve EARNINGS. A PERMANENT SOLUTION TO A PERMANENT PROBLEM. And the person who is coming will have to pay 15k for his/her LICENCES fee, becos you are coming to be train as a QUALIFY COMPETENT NUTRITIONIST. BENEFITS- there are 10 ways you make money in this company. 1- PRESENTATION. you will be given a PROPOSAL LETTER ON FREE HEALTH TALK to go and summit to churches, companies, co-operative societies, mosques, communities, friends or any organization at all. And if approve, any money you make from there is your own. And how do you make this money through this presentation? Yes we actually sell supplement ie NEOLIFE in any presentation, not for us to huge it like other companies do. In my company if u r caught huging this supplement from one place to another u r out, no abeg. We dn't relay on selling of supplement to make money but training. ACDC, SAP and WHO pay us to go and give awareness of the danger of chronic diseases to the society. So, if u see any of those ones selling NEOLIFE from street to street that is not my company. And you will go with a testing machine call QUANTUM RESONANCE MAGNETIC ANALYZER. It analyze the 37 organs in human body in less than three minutes, you also charge them for this test. Some persons after coming for one or two weeks to this organization can make 50k 100k 200k 300k 500k even 1m frm only one Presentation depend on luck. 2- RECRUITMENT. the numbers of pple you recruited into the organization, the more you are been paid and grow in ur step up. 3- TRAINING- you will undergo INDOOR, OUTDOOR, and INTERNATIONAL TRAINING. This is were d bulk of the money is. So, this is just a summary. I created a thread on this very issue. If you have any questions fill free to reach me here or my profile. My call/whatsapp No and email is there, available 24/7.

bruh,,this GLND stuff is now bcoming unbecoming....
there was an ivite too i got yesterday for a position...i knew immediately after reading the message that it wasnt real...but i wanted to satify my curiosity and went there in the evening after i was sure the interview must have bin over...getting there,,what i saw was quiet pleasing to me because i blv i was smart not to have fallen for such....I saw people coming out of the supposed building that looks like a complex, they look perplexed and dejected like they bin defrauded some of them were even singing christain songs like they were thanking God he saved them...

with the little experience i had and things have read online, i knew immediately this people didnt get the interview they hoped for but a suicide meeting...

But my question is this,, how do we get to know the true and real sms interview when we get one,,,,because i keep praying i dont lose the real job when it comes by....
Bro, I read this your post and it got me laughing so loud that i woke up everyone in the neighbourhood. Imagine laughing out loud at 5.25am when everyone was still asleep. May the unemployed be saved from these 'white collar' scammists.
