Ever since the Ghostbusters went out of business the lines have been dodgy.

If you are still wondering about the quality of the advisor employed by One International, here is the candidate requirements (direct cut and paste from a genuine job advert, no editing by myself except for the highlighting):

The candidate must have a hard working attitude, self-motivated, goal orientated, passionate, sales minded, an outstanding individual and a burning desire to be the best no matter what it takes. Sales experience and proven track record is a must, financial background isn’t essential but desirable. Fluent English speaking is a must.

So there you go - sales over financial knowledge.

You're right. That is incredibly bad grammar. "is a must"? No no no. The shortest way that I can phrase that sentence is "Must be able to speak English fluently." And even that's pushing it.

We provide them now but ask staff to pay for the cost from their first commissions...doesn't get fairer than that!
