Apex Alliance

First of all its a very low key scam to whatever you're pitching to the customers, the Apex alliance are hungry pigs from the UK not an Australian company, you're set out to a rich suburb to knock on every street and try to sell them something, i was surprised how understanding these people were but it broke my heart how old they were and they were agreeing to these scam pitches, an ex-colleague was saying whatever he could to get into the house and to preform his pitch (saying he was a government worker) later on we'd get into verbal arguments with retired home owners because he kept using it, they expect us to use our own opal to travel long long distances just to get to these suburbs,the many items we were pitching was LED light bulbs and energy bill switching which in other parts of the world has been noted down as scams, door to door sales rep's are scammers and now ive seen it for myself, dont ever trust these people although they are kind backpackers its the money hungry pigs behind the schemes.

I started here as a backpacker who never thought of working in sales. I worked here for about 5 weeks and the team environment is second to none. Very positive work environment and management couldn't be better, they're constantly pushing you to be the best version of yourself you can be. The job is heavily performance based and having a positive attitude every day will go a long way for you but that isn't always easy. The base pay for a day with no sales is frankly terrible and not realistic if you're looking for sustainable income. I left with a small bit of money earned up but a far more optimistic, happier individual overall especially considering it was all for a not for profit organisation.

A typical day at this workplace included, meeting at the office in the morning. Where we would get into a car or hired bus to go out into a suburb and start knocking the neighbourhoods doors to sell them an energy deal. 
I learnt how electricity and gas works in training sessions. How to draw a customers attention in on the package and how to use their iPad system. 
The workplace culture was great, the mentors/trainers were incredibly nice and genuinely wanted to see their employees be successful. 
As the job is commission based it was hard to Maritain a sale and having the thought of potentially making no money in one day was hard. 
The most enjoyable job was actually going through and maintaining a sale with a customer.

I went to the interview, because of the $800-$1000 as they advertised. I passed and got the job. They called me for training. I went there. The advertisement is a LIE. You don't get that much a week. This is a commission job. You only get paid for each customer you get, which is probably 10c for each customer. You probably won't even get more than 5 customers a day, since everyone on the streets will just ignore you. Also they expect u to work in the Sydney CBD for 8hrs. DON'T waste your diamond time, and apply for FAKE advertisement like this!!

Don't even bother about working here. Terrible management and terrible recruitment process. No support or guidance, you're basically thrown out to the road to make sales and you have to travel and walk for hours spending your own money just to make no sales. 

No basic salary, entirely commission based and you'll typically spend weeks or months before making a sale, if it's possible at all. During my time working there out of 25 people only one person made 1 sale.

You'll end up wasting your time and spending your own money.

If you have any commitments in your life that require you to physically be there constantly, this job is not for you. 6 hours a day walking around neighborhoods knocking on doors for 90% of the people to reject you. Commission only so regardless of how much effort you put in, if people don't sign up then you don't get paid. Company pays fortnightly and also makes you pay a $7 insurance fee every week because they are commission based so they don't have their own insurance, you have to pay for it. No insurance, no payments. They trap you.

Do not be so desperate to give the satisfaction to apex alliance they were very rude and snobby to myself and another lady at the end of the meeting I walked up and said thanks for your time she turned her back to me and started another conversation then 2 days later got a email for another appointment very unorganised company looking to take advantage of people who can be taken advantage of you will be spending your hard earned savings in no time.

Do not work for this company- they are nothing but money hogs -
They exploit you, send you onto the field for hours on end with the certainty of rejection from customers. The job description is extremely misleading and it is a commission job and that you get paid the week after (so like the Friday of the second week). I could go on but I don't want to relive the harsh reality of this employment opportunity...

I’ve been working for this company for a while now and I would still choose working here over most other jobs, the teams the culture and the staff are fantastic. 

As a person you will grow and learn so manny new things and every day has new surprises so the job never gets boring.

Starting out you have all the help in the world and every day your congratulated on for your success

It was an job with great challenges and confronting as well. Since it was face to face sales it was great in learning people skills as well as communication. The hardest part about the job, is travel money since I don't get as much pay, the rest goes on travel money. It wasn't a Greta fit for me, since I had to help provide for my family.
