To start you go through about 3 or 4 interviews that are fairly the same thing over and over again as far as answering questions about yourself. Then you go through a few work orientations and trainings that are very boring and mostly talk about how great of an opportunity you have to be better than everyone else. In the spring you start seeing that you are in charge of paying for your marketers, gas, and all the other small expenses. The company says they will give you money for paying marketers, but that is a LIE. I was able to set up a few jobs for the summer, but because of family reasons couldn't fulfill my responsibilities in the summer. So the company promised me 5% of my jobs I had set up. As of now I've yet to see a dime and was left with the bill of paying off my marketers. To sum up my experience I basically spent my entire second semester at school working my tail off to set up my business, but in the end ended up losing about three hundred dollars. My advice, unless you're willing to spend your entire spring and summer to make just above minimum wage or even lose money by the end of it, then don't do it.
