I just got a call from this number, I could not understand the company name or her name. She said she got my resume off the internet and asked me to call her back. She never said anything about an interview or job, just to call her back. At the end of the voicemail she said I had one full day. I'm assuming she meant one day to call her back but you never know. I will not be calling her back. Thank you to all the other people who posted and warned me.

To many of you have had this experience for me to call know thanks everyone

Same here. She is at it again.

Rec'd a call from this number, they left a message. She said her name was Josey Wilson and she was with Bankers. She said she saw my resume online, wants me to call for a job, NOT!

Just had the same thing happen. I even called back and left a message but haven't heard anything yet. What B.S!

Same thing happened to me this morning, barely can understand her name or company. Wanted am interview based on my application online, which I'm in the medical field. Thanks for the input everyone, will not be calling back now

Oh my goodness! I'm so glad I found this page? the same thing happened to me. SCAM!!!! Thanks for sharing everyone!!!!

I got a call from this same number too, found this conversation, but decided to keep looking anyways.  I found an article about a writer's personal encounter with this company in California, found here: http://www.cockeyed.com/citizen/bankers/bankers.php

I also happened to receive an email from this lady pasted below.  Her name is Lisa Makrianes for Bankers Life, sounds like a scam where they actually just want you to sit through a presentation where they try to get people to sell 100% commissioned insurance.

Here's her email:

I also just got a voicemail from a lady from this company Banker's Life that I could barely understand what she was saying.  Wanted to interview based on my resume (which I just posted on Monster yesterday).  Not calling back if it is insurance sales or telemarketing.

Apparently she must be at it again!
I recieved a VM from this lady that could hardly speak english and couldnt understand where she was calling from cause she slurred her words. She also stated she saw my resume from a site online and wanted to set up an interview asap.

Not calling her back!

I just spoke with this woman... I think she said her name was Arlene, but I could barely understand anything that she said.  She scheduled an interview with me and said that she'd send me an email and a text with all of the information.  I'm thinking that I will be a no-show for this one; I'm not wasting the time or money on this "interview".

Just got the same call. I couldnt understand half of the message. I would reccomend that no one calls her back. Its definalty a scam if they cant even hire a person who atleast sounds legit!

I received a call from 727-431-9624  woman could not speak English and she wanted to record my conversation for an interview over the phone? I did not call back.

Just had the same experience...couldn't understand her.....her name or company name...just posted resume on Monster....will not be calling back after reading the above comments...thanks!

recieved a message also from some one that could bearly speak english, something about seeing my resume and had a position opening wanted to interview. Didn't say from where or any other information. I have my resume for medical not sure what kind of job would be in this catagory, Not returning call

Same here.  This woman barely speaks recognizable English and states that I applied for a job.  She states that she's from Banker's Property and Casualty Insurance in Clearwater, Florida.

However, I find it difficult to believe that a company would have someone calling them for a job by someone who can't seem to speak English and is very difficult to understand.

It does sound like a scam.  If it's not, then the person calling sounds like a person that does the scamming.

I just got this call from the same lady as described from previous posts. I'm not calling her back, I'm sure it is a scam.

Also got a call from this number a day after applying to a different job on Monster. Could not understand her name or company name. She stated she wanted an urgent interview.

I also got a call, couldn't understand her and said she wanted to interview me right away.

I also got a call from this lady ans left me a message about my resume nonlinear and asked me to call back. Couldn't really understand her name or the company she was calling from.

i got a message from a lady with a broken English accent and it sounded like she her name was Ariel and to call to set up an interview. I couldn't understand the company name, but if the others here say it was Bankers Life...I wouldn't be qualified if it is a legit call as my husband works for State Farm and it would be a conflict of interest to work for another insurance company. I'm just gonna disregard this call

Same here.  She got my resume offline.  I couldn't make out the company she was calling from or her name.  I wonder if it's a scam.

I got a call back from this number too. I too applied for a different job on careerbuilder. Same lady Carrie described - could heardly understand her Vmessage, and she slurs her name.

She's called me twice, we never seem to connect..

Same thing. Said her manager got my resume off Monster. Girl could hardly speak English trying to set up an "interview" with me urgently. Then she called me again by mistake not realizing she had just called me.

They called stating they had seen my resume online and wanted to interview me urgently for an open position.  I received this call the day after I applied to a different job on CareerBuilder.  Others have also had this experience: http://www.cockeyed.com/citizen/bankers/bankers.php
