Vantaggi
The pros are the interview process is pleasant, and quick. The recruiter and all of the hiring managers I spoke to were all extremely kind and friendly. In addition the pay and benefits are lovely.
Svantaggi
Wow! Where do I begin? First, I am currently a Senior Accounting major who WAS scheduled to graduate in December 2015. I started the Spring 2015 semester but then withdrew after 2 weeks, after receiving notification that I was selected to start training for Apple. In addition to withdrawing from school this semester in order to " work" for Apple, I also quit the job I had for nearly a year in order to be able to " work" for Apple. I already knew that my old job would become a thing of the past due to Apple's better pay and benefits package. - Not only did I withdraw from school, and resign from my old job in order to " work" for Apple; but I also declined another job offer that was made to me, prior to accepting the Apple " job" offer. Training was highly intense. From 9am- 1 pm there were self guided learning modules. And from 2 pm -6 pm there was role playing and advisor guided training. After 2 weeks of training, there was a test, where in order to pass, you must score an 80%. The test is timed with 20 questions on it. About 1/3 of the material on the test was not covered in training. Which is BEYOND unfair. I took the test last night and scored a 70%. I was able to take the " retest" this morning and scored a 75%. At this point I am waiting for the inevitable, for me to be informed I have been " fired". This experience that I've had, I would not wish on my worse enemy. To tell someone they're " hired" by Apple as an at home advisor is a scam. It's all a rat race to reel in as many unsuspecting " applicants" such as myself; issue too demanding exams with unrealistic passing requirements, and then surprise you with the " you're fired" line after 2 weeks! I would not recommend this " job" to ANYONE!
