Best Version Media interview questions

I was contacted by a recruiter by email, who set up a phone interview with a Division Director. This 25-minute interview was very positive and supportive - not confrontational. My questions were also answered.

The Interview process was great. I had a lot of questions and interviewer was able to answer them all. Best Version was extremely fast responding to my resume, getting back to me in less than an hour. They called the next day and set up a convenient time to have a phone interview. I had a total of two phone interviews. I was offered and accepted a Publisher position, and to take over a magazine where the former publisher had retired, and was scheduled to go to training ( at my own expense ). The demographics department called me to ask where I wanted them to research, and when I told them I had been promised a certain region, I was informed that another person had been hired a day or two previous (and after I had been hired and given the area) and was promised the same town. After contacting the hiring manager, I was told that I would be working as a sales person at a reduced pay scale for the area. The manager failed to inform me that they had begun running an ad for the sales position the day before. I would have preferred that Best Version Media had been honest with me and would have had the courtesy to call me and let me know they had hired someone else for the same job they had hired me for, and that they were planning to hire someone for the secondary position they were offering. It feels a lot like broken promises. I wish I had gotten something in writing from them, rather than their worthless and expensive talk of a position. I fear they would have let me spend the $600+ dollars to travel to training and the loss of several days before telling me they were not going to honor their word. A man and a company are only as good as their word, and so far Best Version Media appears to be all talk and no walk. My advice to anyone looking for a job with Best Version Media would be to get everything in writing, and if possible record every conversation. I feel like the entire hiring process was a scam.
