I’m so glad I found this page. I JUST cancelled the interview.

I don’t want to exit this page but I swear somewhere I looked up information on the website and it showed it was made in May 2024. I thought it was suspicious, especially with no way to see where it was made, etc. What really through me off more was that I never delete my emails, regarding jobs. Even all the rejected ones. I keep tabs of all the places I’ve applied to and got rejected from. It was weird that I didn’t find “Factor” on my emails. When I inquired about the role, they responded the next day for a role I do not apply to.

After finding this page, and with everyone’s reactions, I read through the website. There’s a LOT of grammar mistakes and that’s when I decided to say no.

"Rea" from Factor texted me regarding a job interview I had no recollection of and offered a zoom link to speak with "Brandon". I asked for the website and it's generic - all links lead to a singular page. None of the social media sites connect anywhere. Their LinkedIn page was JUST created with no team members in sight. And their address is noted as 1753 E Olympic Blvd, Los Angeles, CA 90021 which leads to a generic fashion factory beneath DTLA. It all seems fishy so I canceled my interview.

I received a text message on Thursday June 20th for a job interview with a company named "Factor" for a Monday morning interview. I couldn't find a company named Factor that I had applied to, and I grew suspicious when they texted me a zoom link and not a Meeting ID. I asked for further job details on Friday but was never sent any or even responded too. I had opened the link on Friday and again today, which prompted me to sign into my zoom account. Apparently this is a red flag and I changed my password right after my log in today. About an hour before the scheduled meeting at 1:30 I asked for a meeting ID which they gave me. I logged into my account with the new password and entered the meeting ID and the password listed in the text thread.

A man too young to be in a position of seniority asked me to turn on my camera which I did. I found about two other people on the meeting, which seemed an unusual way to conduct a job interview. Similar, although he wore a suit, his hair was loose, long and un-styled, behind him what appeared to be a bedroom wall, painted black with a window covering half his body from behind. He mentioned how 23 million Americans are out of work which doesn't seem like something a recruiter would say in an interview. He then said that before explaining the position that all of us would first introduce ourselves, say we where we are from and "tell us a little about yourselves" This doesn't seem like a legit way conduct a job interview or recruiting process. A female began speaking and I was then kicked off the call. My demeanor when on call was guarded and I looked actively suspicious and grew more visibly wary as the call went on. I don't think I was on for more than 90 seconds, and could see that I could tell that there were red flags. I left Zoom open and appeared to be still off the call, so hopefully my computer and data are unaffected.

I googled the phone number that sent out the job interview on Thursday. The first result was https://factor.net/contact-us. The website featured non-descript but professional graphics, but the description of the business was vague and clunky, though it has been written by AI. More over, the website's text references clients but doesn't get specific of who they are or their names. Instead of an address, the only location contact information is "Downtown Los Angeles" At the bottom of the page, the logos of Instagram and LinkedIn appeared, but they are not links to each site as legit businesses have, just images/vectors. Overall, no specific information was given, the webpages seemed generic and just used recycled, non-descript copy that vaguely define any business.

So far it doesn't look like they have taken advantage of me but I'd like to report this before they might or take advantage of someone else. Please look into this. Thank You

You're right and this just helped me cancel the interview. Thank you for posting.

I believe you're right. I also was just contacted by "Rea" to interview with "Brandon" and checked their generic site - no links work. Every category leads to the same page. No clients listed. No team members anywhere, including LinkedIn. And the biggest kicker - their office is "located" in a generic fashion factory beneath DTLA. I just canceled my interview when I read this. Thank you for posting.
