Career opportunities

I was hard-working and conscientious. This was threatening to some of the slackers in management. When I noticed that both printers on my floor were down and we had no notebooks or pens in cabinets, I reported it to the supply-ordering woman on the floor where I went to make copies of our daily class. She was shopping for handbags on her computer at the time and took offense. She offered to show me online how to report printers down. I replied that myself and 50 (yes!) others in my floor were being paid to study for our FINRA licensing exams so I didn’t think I was the correct one to be reporting it. She became my enemy bc I was a threat. TO MYSELF, I noted that she cd get poor quality cookies to all dining areas on Natl Sugar Cookie Day; ditto w Natl Vanilla Ice Cream Day yet not keep supplies needed daily! I pointed out that HER floor had nice quality and cheap Bic stick pens while my floor only had the cheapest pens). She ‘reported me to my Manager who rudely yanked me out of class to scold me for 45 minutes that I had called the printer repair guy fat and bald! Apparently supply slacker had lied about what I said bc I hv never laid eyes on this guy and to this day don’t know who he is! As we exited the meeting, my Manager stepped into hall w/in earshot of HER Manager and loudly scolded me for being unprofessional by calling so and so fat and bald! I was so shocked bc I had just told her that was impossible for me to say. I got another like scolding fr my Manager loudly pulling me out of study group like a truant child for a 15-min mtg. Why? bc I didn’t text report my emergency 8am chiropractor visit to her before I went into office. I reported it to her when I arrived at 9am (1-hr late) telling her I wd work one hour late (I worked 2.5 after closing). She made me take PTO for 1-hr. When I failed Series 7 by 1point (herniated disk in lumber/pain meds slowed me until I cd get steroid injection) I was laid off for 6 months and invited to reapply/retake test. I already have two other needed FINRA licenses. I reapplied and was told: “You qualify to return (top score on EVERY customer review for last 2 months I was on phones), but SENIOR MANAGEMENT says you don’t fit into the culture here!! I got along w all of my work colleagues but was not as goof off and playful as the mostly younger slackers!

When I got called for the job, the person who called me over the phone for interview told me I will have to quit school for a semester in order to be successful in the training. I went a head and quit classes, believe me it was the hardest decision I ever made since I have only got the chance to start back the semester before but I believed the job was a great opportunity. Initially she told me to make up my mind and give her a call back and I tried calling many time with no response. I reached out to the first person who contacted me about the job and that's how she called me back. Then she went on to send me a test and once I did the test she called me back to tell me I didn't pass the test so I wont get the job. She really spoiled my entire semester and Ihave been depressed since then because why tell someone to quit school if there was so many processes to determine if I would get the job. I didn't even made it to training.

Patient understanding and homework on a business outside the office with a little management acknowledgement.

Make sure you can work OT and the place never closes you need to be there no matter what

Yes, and randomly after hire based on your position/job role.

Yes, they perform a background drug test. Specifically, this is a SAP 5-50 NIT test. This means that it is a 5 panel (Marijuana, Ampethamines/Methamphetamines, Cocain, Opiates, and PCP) test with a 50 ng/ml cutoff. In my experience, all of the background drug tests (3) I have taken for Fidelity have been behind close doors, after emptying pockets and leaving items with the technician. In the case where you give a dilute negative (a diluted, water-heavy sample), they will accept the dilute negative and not require you to return for another test.

No you report to a lab

4 months with multiple interviews

By law in several states, it is illegal for them to ask for this information due to the fair wage practices law. MA is one of the states there. Inform them of that or provide them with a modified W2 with the financial figures blanked out. That is what I did. Also, use a doc u share for information security reasons. They don't have one. It is a major risk.
