UNI GIRL GETS JOB OFFER FROM RECRUITER, WHERE SHE HAS TO GET “INTIMATE” WITH CLIENTS

Just received a very strange phone call

I’m a uni student on sem break so recently I’ve applied to numerous part-time jobs on various job application websites.

Then I received a phone call from this guy claiming to be from Talentvis recruitment about a job position at a hotel.

He appeared legit because he knew the contents of my resume as well as my school & stuff. He then started asking me about details like my current work, salary etc.

Then, he started to talk about a job position for me in a very strange way. He spent like 10mins telling me that this hotel I will be working at is a premium lounge for VIPs and that I will be expected to engage in customer interactions that are more personal and intimate than regular customer service roles (e.g., I will be expected to know the customers’ personal details like their professions, what personality they have etc).

When I asked the name of the hotel, he said he was not allowed to disclose it due to client privacy. He then invited me to come to his office to discuss with me further about the job.

What made me suspicious was the way he spent so long trying to convince me that this job is fulfilling and enriching.

If it’s just a regular hospitality job, wouldn’t he be less desperate? He even told me that the current employees are enjoying it and gave positive feedbacks etc. Thoughts?

Netizens’ comments

1. Sounds like hostess club.
2. Probably getting you to be an escort
3. Don’t even need to consider anything else after hearing “more personal and intimate”, block and get out
4. Tell them you are not comfortable making any commitments or decisions until you have more information.
5. The reason he is not saying the hotel name may be because he does not want you to go directly to their HR and skip him in the process (and so he would miss out on commission). The job description sounds bad, but it could be due to unfortunate wording. Like “intimate” could be replace by “close-knit” or “deeply engaging”.
6. Unless you need good money fast, and don’t mind offering “intimate” services, you should just ignore this.
