They’d say there is “an opportunity” to become an assistant. And they’ll be off the hook as they never even give you anything in writing in regards to your specific position. Did you even do W -4. Was salary discussed? They play some kind of games and I think you maybe dodged a bullet here

never signed any paperwork - just the paper application. No W-4.
I think you hit the nail on the head with their plans. I scoured Reddit for similar threads and someone else posted about being hoodwinked by a company; where they were verbally offered a role, then later told that role wasn't available but another role was available that they thought the candidate would be a good fit for.
Just really deceitful practices on the part of companies. This independently owned dog grooming store would have been within walking distance from my apartment and the prospected assistant store manager salary the low 50Ks.
But, I think you're correct: train me to be a dog groomer for 2 weeks while never producing the assistant store manager offer letter they'd verbally promised me, then make me a dog groomer. Their dog groomers only make $18/hr too which isn't a livable wage by any means.
