Please listen to all the other reviews on here, this is absolutely a scam. When I received the email inviting me to come in for an interview, it specified that the office was part of a co-working space and to be sure that I asked for Ace when I arrived. I have extensive experience with co-working spaces (specifically WeWork and The Yard) and this was clearly a front: only three companies shared this space and they all happened to be interviewing dozens of applicants at the exact same time. There were clearly attempts to make this space appear like more well-known co-working space chains, but all that resulted in was obnoxiously loud music being played through the whole office, a TV set up with a PlayStation, and another TV playing "Friends" on mute. It was sparsely furnished and incredibly cramped. When I introduced myself at the front desk, I was given an application sheet to fill out. This is when I realized that three different companies were operating the same way at the same time. When I glanced at other people's sheets (hard not to do in such close quarters) they were completely different from mine. Again, what are the odds that all three companies would be conducting similar interviews at the same time if they weren't related? A lot of the questions on the sheet were pretty standard, but the one that was a huge red flag was when they asked what I made at my previous job. It is illegal in New York City for prospective employers to ask about your salary history. A company that does not know this (or knows and chooses to ignore it) is not reputable and is not to be trusted. You do not have to tell them (I wrote on the sheet that it was illegal for them to ask; it was not commented on). I was finally called back in to the "interview" by a woman who spent the whole time explaining to me their business model in a very rushed way that was hard to follow. She attempted to draw it out on the back of my resume, but that seemed like it was supposed to help her more than it was supposed to help me. She asked me literally one question ("How are you with managing different personalities?") and gave me no opportunity to ask any of my own. I was out of there in about five minutes, maybe less. I received an email to come back in tomorrow for an "experiential day" but I declined and told them to take that salary question off their application sheet if they're at all interested in being in compliance with the law. This has pyramid/multi-level marketing scheme written all over it. I understand looking for a job can be stressful and people become desperate, but use the time you would be giving to this scam to pursue opportunities at reputable companies.

Person interviewing me spoke way too fast for me to understand him well, plus told me that it wasn't an agency (which it said on its website, which became way too sketchy for me to continue to the next round of interviews
