They called 4 times in a row within 5 minutes (3 times they hung up when I answered, 4th time they spoke when I picked up) I did not apply for this company but they must have got my number and information from Monster dot com when I uploaded my resume and have been applying for other work.
I could tell the person over the phone was reading from a script and was courteous. When I asked questions about the job position and information, clearly the woman on the phone was trying to answer questions as best as possible from a script.
She told me the office is located in Chesterfield, Missouri which is close proximity to me but the call just seemed "fishy", possibly because of the woman speaking was thrown off by questions and was reading from a written dialogue. After researching the company that calling trying to recruit me for a job I saw there are people employed all over the United States.
I told them to send information in an email and I will check it out, ever since I signed up for Monster job search website I have gotten random calls, (1 i checked out was a scam when i put the number in), I did check the option "employers can view my resume" I may have to turn off contact details. I checked out information on the company Bankers Life, it is a legit company but I see awful reviews from people who worked in the company selling insurance. Here is a link to job reviews for this company: http://www.indeed.com/cmp/Bankers-Life-&-Casualty-Company/reviews

"Insurance Agent (Former Employee), Fredericksburg, VA – September 14, 2013
Cons: too many to list
This whole opportunity is a really bad joke that is not funny at all. I don't even know where to begin. I wasted six months of my life that i can never get back working for this so called company. First they will act like they want to hire and interview you. They contacted me after i posted my resume on monster. They invited me to an interview that i thought was one on one. When i showed up there were 10 people in a room waiting for the representative to give a speech to tell you how great it is to work for them and how you can make all kinds of money......It is all very misleading. Long story short i passed the state exam that i had to pay for, i went to their week long training that lasted 8 hrs a day and didn't get paid for. I worked my tail off calling on leads that were supposed to be warm leads that wanted life insurance. They were actually recycled leads that had been passed around to other agents. When i called the people the majority of them were irritated that i called and said, " I thought i told you to take me off your list!" It was terrible.....every day it was the same thing i was given leads that did not want to be bothered by Bankers Life or any of their representatives. The company emphasizes just getting an appointment whatever it takes. Most of the time the people would set an appointment with me then i would drive all over the country side and they would "Porch" me. This is a term often used at Bankers. It means they flake on you and don't answer the door or don't show up. I wasted countless gallons of gas. I"m trying to summarize the terrible experience I had so i will try and wrap it up. It went on like this for months. Lucky i had other sources of income or i would have gone broke. The way it ended up before i left. I had set an appointment and the Branch Manager agreed to run it for me because I had other appointments at the same time. He told me we would split the deal I would get 50% and he would get 25% and another employee going with him would get 25% I said "Great!" He ran the appointment and it turned out to be a very good customer that purchased four policies. A life insurance plan and 3 annuities. The commission was going to be pretty substantial. After some time i looked in my Bankers online system and noticed i had only got 25% of the first policy that the commission was pending. I confronted the branch manager about this and he took offense to it. He was going back on his word of me getting 50%. Once again long story short. He made up some story, reason and decided that it was time to terminate my contract. Very convenient so he would not have to pay me my rightful commission on the four policies that he promised me. Right then i knew i was dealing a dishonest individual who was running the branch, actually i suspected he was shady from the beginning but i gave him the benefit of a doubt. I was glad to have had my contract terminated he did me a favor i am not a quitter so i probably would have wasted more time with this company. I worked with many dedicated intelligent individuals at this company who had their hopes built up only to be let down and disappointed and ultimately left the company. If i can prevent one person from making the mistake of getting involved with this company and going through what i went through that is good. Watch out don't be gullible like me. I had read all the negative reviews about the company the first month i was there, but i had to learn the hard way. All the negative reviews are true. My family members had even warned me but i am stubborn and didn't want to listen.....It's pretty comical when i think about it. Anyways lesson learned for sure."
