Why are people giving up traditional jobs and instead coming to work for Total Debt Freedom?
Because J-O-B is a nasty word. Work, we believe, must be more than just getting a “paycheque” every two weeks. It has to be fun, educational, rewarding and something that makes you so excited that you want to leap out of bed each morning.
Forget about the boring 9 to 5 cookie cutter office job. Instead, get paid to play, learn and grow. It’s like being a kid again. But with pay.
Over the last few years Total Debt Freedom has won tons of awards and accolades, and our movement is now creating one of the most unique and desirable work cultures. We are working with PrincePerelson staffing firm company to help us find high-quality candidates.
We’re reinventing what “work” should be: 10 Reasons to Join Total Debt Freedom
1. Freedom
We understand that brilliant people hate rules and shackles, and desire the freedom to do their work – in their way. Our environment is not only stress free but also drama free. We give you the freedom to think outside the box; in fact our shift in thinking is led by a CEO that has been told he doesn’t even see the box.
2. Awesome People
Our work culture, generous compensation and employee development programs attract brilliant applicants from all across Canada. Make it in, and you’ll be working with some of the best people out there. We understand that “A” players attract “A” players. When you have an atmosphere of like-minded individuals, true awesomeness really happens in a workspace. Awesome people are what make going to work, feel the same as going out with your best friend.
3. Culture & Perks
We treat our employees very well. Team retreats, annual dinners and parties, random acts of kindness, generous bonuses, profit sharing, employee benefits, a cool office space, office supplies like this m404dn toner here, social events, training programs, access to a personal development library and more. You may be also needing some other office supplies such as professional glue gun and the like.
4. Training & Education
Your typical work week is 45 hours. Of this time, 40 hours is spent on production and we allow you to spend 5 hours a week on personal development. For some that might be learning a new skill for others it might be stepping out to the gym mid-day for a workout. You decide but you will get access to a library of coaching and training material plus mentorship from senior employees.
5. Stability
We have never taken a drop of investment and so we have no investors to tell us what to do or to pull the plug on us. We’re a private, self-funded company and remain profitable. We started with an initial investment of $5,000 from our founder and CEO Richard Cooper and his 90 sq/ft dining room in January 2005 and have grown rapidly since.
6. Fun
We put the word “Fun” in “Business Fundamentals”. Don’t get us wrong here—we’re a disciplined, well-oiled machine that grows. But we believe that business can be fun and people should look forward to going to work each day. So we create a work environment that is designed to make your tasks, your team mates and even company meetings, a ton of fun.
7. Giving Back
Many of our employees have spent significant time volunteering or working for non-profits. We started this business to change the way people resolve debt. Money came as a natural by-product. As a result, we will devote our time and attention to causes that may not bring in short term profits, but may result in positive social change. In our spare time Total Debt Freedom tribe members volunteer their time to charitable causes.
8. We want to wow clients AND employees with awesomeness!
Yes, awesomeness is a word. With small ideas, we aim for big impact. Whenever we do anything we always aim to wow people. We aim for total transparency and employee engagement. Our goal is to create raving fans of our employees and clients.
9. Profitability
We’re profitable and continue to grow each year at impressive rates. This translates into profit sharing bonuses and generous employee perks. We believe in taking care of our people, so our people will take care of our clients. We believe that profitability is a by-product of happy and engaged employees.
10. First Date Dress Code
We don’t believe in getting all bunged up in stuffy suits and ties to come to work, we aren’t bankers nor do we want to be. We think ties suck for workspaces. We wear into work what we would wear on a first date, because everyone deserves to be as comfortable at work as they are at home.
Like What You See? We Are Hiring
Much of the work we do is on the cutting edge of consumer debt relief. We didn’t experience over 1,100% growth over the last 5 years because we are a boring cookie cutter company awash in red tape. So we hire people based on their ability to think, to grow, and to strive to be the best.
We hire telephone debt consultants, customer service reps, debt negotiators, Internet marketers, writers, bloggers, and many others. Your education isn’t important. Your life story, personal accomplishments, personality, skills and goals are what we really look for. [anchor]tips[/anchor]
