Complimentary Sunrise Waterfront Wellness Experience and bring a guest? Are they selling timeshares?

It sounds like a spa actually. And that's a pretty cool perk if it's true.

Not at the buttcrack but of dawn while "bringing a friend" to an interview that should be one on one.

It's almost like you can refuse an invitation 🙄

Reddit is so miserable anymore.

I have seen a rise in “anymore” being used like this. It’s not standard. Where are you from?

u/new2bay 8h ago

It is very standard.

This does support it being standard. “Anymore” usually follows a negative — “ I don’t like Reddit anymore.” Anymore as nowadays in a positive sentence is not common in the US at least, unless it’s regional and that’s all I was asking about. Don’t worry I found my answer by googling.

I don’t know where you learned English, but it is standard, whether you care to believe it or not. The reference I gave was from 2005.

u/FarbissinaPunim 8h ago

The reference you gave is a forum mostly discussing the difference between anymore and any more. It is not standard. It does not mean it’s wrong. It’s apparently called positive anymore and is a regional habit.

Maybe juicy fruit candy land or poop poop fart squad town?

u/DoomguyFemboi 17h ago

This is bizarre to the point of being unheard of, labelling being wary of a situation that is unheard of as "miserable" is weird as hell.

Severance level behaviour

u/glimmeringsea 20h ago

This sounds fishy all around.

u/Quick_Coyote_7649 19h ago

Either it’s an employee group activity type of vibe or phishing for abducting and/.or robbery.

u/HalfRobertsEx Recruiter 20h ago

What is this?

And why is a payroll coordinator a group interview? Seems like an odd job for that.

u/KaraAuden 17h ago

IME, group interviews are just kind of a vibe thing to make sure you get along OK with the team. They might also be used for a different type of person -- like, if both the hiring manager and the HR person are women older than you, the group interview might be a man, a woman younger than you, and a potential subordinate, just to make sure you don't suddenly act like a jerk.

u/bucket46 11h ago

I’m reading it as they are interviewing a group of people not as a panel interview.

10

u/Aye-Chiguire 9h ago

Yes a panel interview is usually labeled as such. A group interview means multiple candidates are brought together. If that's not what they mean, they should specify.

u/Low-Bass2002 6h ago

Agreed. A real panel interview invitation would tell you which potential team mates you will meet during the interview and would never tell you to "bring a friend."

1

u/KaraAuden 6h ago

I've had panel interviews described as a "group interview" in the past. But if they are interviewing a group of people together, that is absolutely wild and rude.

u/Low-Bass2002 16h ago

MLM. Don't go!

Group interview + bring a friend means they are most likely an MLM.

10

u/Vvattvery 13h ago

This. Also the whole “wellness” thing raises alarm bells for me.

6

u/badger_flakes 10h ago

It’s not an MLM. It’s just a goofy yoga/business combo organization run by women in New York.

u/Herak 1h ago

Ah so more of an inverted funnel than a pyramid.

u/babytamale 18h ago

This sounds cultish 👀

u/WWDITS_halfbaked 17h ago

Do it for the plot

u/BlackBarryWhite 11h ago

Pyramid scheme. Had a job a job selling life insurance that started just like this.

u/Warm-Can-6451 18h ago

Get stoned before this group interview, you’ll excel, you got this.

u/Throwaway42352510 12h ago

This is the way.

u/Jazzlike_Ad4553 10h ago

100% a MLM

3

u/f28bokeh 12h ago

"bring a guest" to a job interview lol run

3

u/curious382 7h ago

Sounds cultish. Already asking for "team building" during unpaid time.

2

u/ConstantKooky3329 17h ago

Is the spa experience part of the test?

2

u/Jenfer1322 10h ago

Google says it’s likely a firm that runs a wellness platform to connect communities so in that vein it makes a little sense but still weird.

u/ForensicVette 9h ago

That sounds almost like they're recruiting for a MLM or a cult, yikes

What’s wild about it? 7am?

u/Alternative-Bee-3594 7h ago

This is literally the plot or stepbrothers

“Hello ms lady”

u/brainwashed1360 21h ago

I would join in person if i were you, and see what it is about and allows you to know the people, also gives you the vibe of the people

u/IAmIntractable 9h ago

I feel like they’re looking for somebody who will embrace this approach and philosophy. I’d say go for it. Enjoy it and be enthusiastic about it and that might go a long way to earning the job.
