The information from the site as source is given below:\nTexas International Promotions ripoff Dont go for a first interview and REALLY dont go for a "second interview" - "day of observation" Arlington Texas \n\nCompany\nTexas International Promotions\nAddress:\n2805 West Arkansas Lane, Suite 300\nArlington Texas 76016\nU.S.A.\nPhone Number:\n817-277-2600\nFax:  \n\n\nI admit, I fell for it. I am currently unemployed and was looking for something different. Texas International Promotions called me in for a first quick interview that made the company seem new and different. They called me later that evening to schedule a second interview the following day. All they said was "be here at 9am and you will observe some of what we do."\n\nWhen I arrived for the second interview I was told I would be going with two employees to see exactly what the company does. Little did I know I would be spending the entire day with them basically giving them a free day of work. The business is located in Arlington and the employees took me to set up their little booth in front of a Staples in Dallas. We were trying to promote D.A.R.E., the anti-drug educational group, by selling so-called D.A.R.E. products. I thought it was strange at the time. The company claims to be a third-party company hired by companies to do their promotions. This is total BS in my mind. Why would D.A.R.E. hire two guys in business suits to set up in front of a Staples to promote the program?\n\nIn total I was with the two employees stranded in Dallas from 9am until 5:45pm and we returned to Arlingon at 7pm. I was with them for 10 hours! Of course they DO NOT tell you this. I remember getting in the car after the "second interview", AKA a free day of work for this scam of a company, and calling my friends raving about how incredibly ridiculous the day had been.\n\nPlease don't get trapped like I got trapped. Don't even go for a first interview with Texas International Promotions! I know there are plenty of other promotions/marketing companies out there lately that are promising a good deal...PLEASE JUST SAY NO!\n\nRebecca\nFort Worth, Texas\nU.S.A.\n \nVR

I agree with the PO Box idea, though if that's not an option, make sure that you include a cover letter with  your resume explaining the situation and clearly stating your day of arrival in town.  Also, don't wait for them to call.  Give the letter/resume a week or so to get there and then YOU make the call.\n\nGood luck.

Unless it's high profile, they won't hunt you down, but there will be warrant out on you. If you ever get pulled over for a burned out tail light, they will arrest you. Also, more and more jobs are doing background checks, so it wll be difficult to get a job (they even checked my background when I was hired at Wal-Mart). I believe they do background checks also whenever you get a loan, or if you sign a lease for an apartment.\n\nSo, you could get away with it if you never want to work or buy/rent a place a live, or do anything that the majority of Americans enjoy doing. Does that make it worth it? It's up to you to decide that. \n\nFor me, it wasn't worth it. I was in the Navy, and after a couple months on board the ship, I realized I didn't like this life. I made a checkoff list of the number of days I had left, and marked on off every day. I did this for 4 years until I finally was discharged (honorably, with a RE-R1).

THEY ALWAYS PULL THAT! Go to the main office and tell them you want it now......be sure and threaten them with further business. Example: I will switch to UPS if this happens again!

Yes!\n\nI live in CA and I know of Events and Promotions.  \n\nMy wife took an assignment with them last month and made a couple hundred dollars in one weekend working 5-6 hours each day.  They were great to work with and really responsive.  There was an initial problem with shortage of pay and the took care of it right away.  \n\nShe was an Olay consultant in Safeway for them.  Since then she's seen other offers for phone services, models for race cars and playing with kids to promote exercise.  They even do twin stuff (I'm a twin so it's of interest to me)\n\nGood luck!

Hopefully, your infraction was only a youthful mistake from a distant past. Under federal law, agencies cannot report an arrest that from date of entry was more than seven years ago.\nThat said, honest is always the best policy and you should tell your employer all the facts.\nAlso, it is up to the employer to make the final decision, after being aware of your records.\nObviously, sensitive jobs, such as a bank teller or a preschool teacher, would rather not hire ex-convicts.\nBut you should still try and contact as many employers as possible. Again, the final decision is made by them and having broken the law does not automatically preclude you from a job.

It may not always be legal for an employer to not hire someone based on their crimial history (it must have a direct impact on the type of work you would be doing). For example, I cannot hire someone who is on a sex offender list because we work with children. But in reality, an employer will make a decision based on his/her personal beliefs about who they think you are based on what you tell them/what they know about your history. A decision not to hire can always be justified later on regardless of the real reasons -- "he didn't answer the interview questions well" "the other applicant displayed better qualifications and abilities". Like it or not, that's the way it goes. \n\nYour best bet, in my opinion, is to be up-front and honest about your past. It may cost you a job or two, but at least when you are hired, you'll know that A) you are working with someone willing to give second chances and B) your past will not come to light after your hired and get you fired, C) your new employer believes you can do the job despite whatever is in your past.

Of course they use them against you. that's not to say that you cannot get a job if you have any convictions but better believe that a LOT of companies will hold them against you and will not hire you because of them, they just won't tell you that's the reason, because they don't want to be sued.

You could still be hired.  Be very carefull when asked about your criminal and citation record to disclose it all when asked or filling out the application.  Manytimes they are looking for lies on the application or during the interview and do not consider past criminal and citation records if disclosed.  If not disclosed they would consider you lying.

well because no one really knows the heart of the person and there is always a risk they are running to hire someone with a criminal past, especially when there are many assets at stake. JUST BEING HONEST! do i agree with this? no, i believe everyone deserves a second chance. but having my own business i know that what i have has costed me a lot of hard work for me to "trust" someone just because i want to be a good person. if hired, HONESTLY i would keep a very close eye on the person til they proved they can really be trusted and that they have changed their ways. AGAIN, JUST BEING HONEST!
