Well, I have to agree with you, this region is ridiculous! All it is, is people playing favortism.......They manipulate numbers for anyone that they want to promote and find the smallest reason ever not to let certain people interview for promotions. For them to like you, you need to be single, hot, and have sales and ESQI or just plain kiss their ass all day. So if you are not willing to kiss their ass you can pretty much forget it! When they walk into your branch and ask you how you think your ESQI is and you give them a realistic answer, they are pissed, they want a textbook ERAC answer, but yet if your office is full of people you wont see them jump behind the counter and get your customers going they will either, dodge and hide in an office, or leave. Anyways my point is they love recruiting at colleges for a reason and that is because people who have been out in the real world would never come and do this slave work, but they sell college students on this real job and that you could potentially make what the people in corporate are making, they fail to tell you all the bullshit that you will have to go through to get there. I guess its a great stepping stone to a better job especially if you have good sales.
