Universal Events Inc. / Next Generation Marketing Inc. had contacted me for a job interview that turned out to be an entry-level scam. These 'two' companies contacted me seperately & unknowingly, but used the same phone number and address. This company tries to get you to interview for a job, and the next day for a job shadowing. During the job shadowing, they are basically looking for free work. They have no intention to give you a real job with upward movement.

They claimed to be a 14 year old, international company with over 100 offices. Their website was only 5 months old and the company had no history on the internet or any record of the business even existing--besides the ones they had worked on themselves (facebook/linkedin/tumblr/pintrest/etc.).

This scam is just like the Landers Group scam described here: onedayonejob.com/jobs/the-landers-group/

I am writing this to inform above party that Next Generation is in no way affiliated with Universal Events. Hence the 2 completely different Company Names and FEIN#. They share a space not our business nor business accounts.

Unfortunately, since you were unable to sit down with a member of the actual management staff from Next Generation to make an educated decision....you assumed incorrectly.

Next Generation does Retail Events. Retail, meaning NOT Door to Door. We specialize in Customer Service and Marketing IN STORE.

Hopefully by reading this you will have better luck with your employment search as I am sure other Employers, like us, would not appreciate incorrect assumptions about a company that works with Fortune 500 clients.. Just a tip ;)
