I applied for a job on careerbuilder. I have no experience except for fast food. I went to the first interview and the guy I talked to was nice and I asked me what does direct marketing mean to me, and I had no clue what the answer was but I got it right! I said sellng an item quickly and direct. Well he asked me to come in for a 2nd interview 2morrow from 9:30 am until 5:30 pm. He said the pay ranges from $500 to $700. Is this that job where people harrasss other people all day in business suits trying to convince them to buy a product! PLEASE HELP or any other information you can provide me with to let me know how do I stay away from these corny jobs!

I do not want to walk around harrasing people all day! Because I hated when people harrased me!

Direct Marketing is promoting a product either through mail outs, phone calls, door to door, leaflets etc. It might involve unsolicited promotion which would fit yours and many peoples definition of harrasment.
To avoid those kinds of jobs that you dont want its important to do your research on the company and the role. This is usually as easy as checking out their website. This also helps for those jobs you are interested in as you will be able to show how keen you are through the amount of research you've done.
Im not really familiar with career builder as Im in Australia so Im not sure how much information it gives you on each role. If no info has been given on the company then I would say its perfectly acceptable to ask the interviewer exactly what the role entails. They would prefer you find out sooner rather than later if the job isnt right for you as recruitment costs time & money.
In this case I think its really important to ask since the 2nd interview seems to be an all day thing, I know if I was the employer I'd be a bit pissed if I spent a whole day with someone only to find out they dont even want the job
