Here's the skinny;


YOU HAVE TO KNOW SOMEBODY (or somebody who knows somebody) !!

Turn over is low BUT they have over 200+ applicants on file ??

Jobs are posted internal for people already employed by GMS.

If open positions are not filled by a GMS employee one of the 200+ applicants can be hired.

Open positions will have 50+ applicants.

Bet one of the 50+ applicants for a given position know somebody !!


So unless you have a friend/spouse, golfing/drinking buddy don't bother (this goes for all GMS positions).
It's a bigger racket than the slave labor VCDD.
You: Oh hello this is my first post on TOTV ......too bad it is such a negative catharsis!

Me: I too have friends who became ambassadors and did not go through any such vetting.....maybe it is a new process......or
