What kind of job scam is this? Must love loud music, art, working with opposite sex.?

I have seen this ad in newspapers & on Craigs list. Need 10 people for sales, management, etc. for fun work. Must love loud music, art, working with opposite sex. Earn while you learn. Paid training. They do not give you any details at the first interview. They tell you that you will receive details at second interview. No experience. Potential earnings of $800.00 weekly. I know this is some kind of scam but I don't know what it is.

1. Sounds odd to me: it might be a sicko seeking young girls to prey on
2. A scam Job.. they are everywhere! be careful. there wont be any interviews except over the phone and which you will pay them to train with thier materials. The job is to get the interest of younger people because they would fall into a scam more than a older person. Its not a job title.. its something to draw the young in.
3. Maybe a job at some sort of record store, or a concert venue that just opened up.. maybe tour life
4. i'm in a band i draw for my Hobie and i don't like working with the opposite gender
5. A friend of mine answered one of those ads a few years ago and it is indeed a scam!!! you get paid on commission, you don't actually get paid $800 dollars unless you sell at least ten of their products weekly, you are basically a door to door sales person selling over priced merchandise. The ad my friend answered turned out to be from a certain vacuum company that you've probably heard of, they've knocked on just about everyone's door. My friend was so upset and disappointed, she actually wanted to report them to the better business bureau for posting misleading ads.
