I don't appreciate getting a call from an "interviewing" company, since I'm unemployed, I thought it was a REAL interviewer.......how tacky to scam people in need of a job.........why not use the word "survey", because ultimately that's what this company is.  Besides  other choice words I could think of to call them!

    @ Rinne & Sha.....On July 6,2011 I received a call and after trying to get someone's attention, I hung up. Tried calling back only to have been told by their automated system to leave a message, then being told I could not because their messages were full. (several attempts prompted the same thing) First of all, NO REPUTABLE COMPANY is going to have an answering system that is FULL all the time!!! Secondly, once a person is on the National Do Not Call List,, companies do not have the right to call the numbers listed on that list!!! I have verified this with several different authorities agencies. If B.R. Interviewing was/is reputable, which I highly doubt, they would #1 respond when one answers the phone, #2 BE POLITE when one is speaking, #3 don't be rude when one does not want to participate and #4 wants to be removed from the list. This company is nothing but a scamming agency pretending to be legitimate. I have reported B.R. interviewing to the appropriate authorities. Hopefully they will find enough evidence to shut this place down!!!!

    NIGHT SHIFT WORKER
    I continue to receive calls from BR INTERVIEWING, I have asked on three different occasions to be taken off call list and it never seems to happen. I have called and emailed them to no avail.

    I first requested to be removed from their list on 11/26/12 and again on 12/1/12 and again on 12/6/12.... Im starting to think I must change my telephone number to get rid of these SCUM BAGS.

    I have explained why I want off the list....IE: Night Shift Worker (Sleep during the day) they don't care.....just keep calling....I will attempt to contact the Attorney General reference this situation. THEY HAVE TO STOP....because it is now harassment per my local Law Enforcement.

    I was also just called by BR INTERVIEWING.  I keep getting calls from collection agencies for my step-son who has the same last name and I think that's what this company is too.  If that's what they are, they will never stop calling.  It's definitely harrassment and it's intentional.

    Don't get pissed at the people who work for BR Interviewing. We're just trying to make some money to live on like anyone else. Take your bitchiness to the corporate people, not to the ones that work that job.

      Between 9-13-2013 - 8:30 pm and 9-14-2013 - 12:35 pm got 6 calls from BR Interviewing scumbags.  When I began asking them not to call and to be placed on their do not call list, they hung up.  This behavior is related by all of the different BR Complaint sites on the internet.  This behavior IS deliberate harassment.

      BR Interviewing needs to have a class action lawsuit filed against them.  The phone # they called us from is (541) 357-9270 Eugene OR.  DISREPUTABLE, SCAM COMPANY.

      I do not mind 'research' calls and I do realize MOST are bogus however, I do NOT appreciate someone calling and hanging up on me after stating your company name and asking for an individual that does not live here! I was NEVER given an opportunity to request my number to be removed. They just hung up without an apology for disturbing me on a Sunday  or allowing me to request how they got my number.  That behavior is unprofessional and simply rude!
      THEY called ME - and had the wrong number! If they were legitimate then they would behave appropriately and would ABSOLUTELY want to correct their own records! After looking up the company on the internet I found all these complaints! I get MANY debt collectors calling for that person. The person they asked for obviously has given out my number (or they call me because we have the same last name and I am listed!). Most of those companies are professionals that ARE "just doing their jobs" and have no problem removing my number.  It's a shame companies like this are allowed to be exempt from the 'do not call list'. It is even sadder that their 'clients' don't attempt to check on how they operate. Anyone else notice they DO NOT NAME ANY so called "CLIENTS" that hire them??

        BR Interviewing called me at 6:45 pm this evening.  The gal asked if I was the head of household and I told her my husband and I share the responsibility.  I then asked why she was calling.  She said she was conducting a survey about social issues, then she asked for my zip code.  She then stated, "Oh, we have enough responses from that zip code so you won't need to answer the survey."  The gal was very pleasant but when I hung up I wondered if this was some kind of scam.  It would seem reasonable to me that they would have the zip code, or at least the area of the country, they're calling if they have the phone number.

          Received the same kind of call but pretending they were from AARP...toward end asked for my income and first name which I did not give as AARP would not ask this.....Then was told that they were doing a survey of AARP...so I hung up and refuse to answer the call which when checking caller ID was from BR INTERVIEWING. Don’t know if they are a scam or trying to locate debtors.

      screw these people.  I don't give a crap if they aren't obligated to follow the DNC registry.  They are blood sucking vampires just like the rest.   As far as I'm concerned they can all rot in hell.  Thank Christ for call blocking and the fact that is one company that actually displays their number.

      I was called 3 times in 1 hour. The first 2 callers I told them both I was not interested and take me off the call list. Not 15 mins later another caller, this time male, called. Each time the Caller ID showed either "Directory Assistance" or "ATT Messaging". The last caller I asked him what the address and phone number was of the company he was calling from, he got flustered and asked if I could hold while he looked that up. After about 30 seconds on hold, surprise, I was disconnected. The company name is Braun Research Inc. (aka BR Interviewing). Their address is 271 Wall Street, Princeton, NJ 08540. The President is Paul Braum. They list different phone numbers: 888-527-7779, 609-279-0220, 609-279-1990, 609-279-1600. Shall we all start Robo calling him?

        You can add 609-279-0110 to that list. I love how people who work for them cry about needing to make a living, yet they're working for a company who harasses (and probably scams) people who have legitimate jobs and just want some rest when they're at home. You want to work? There are plenty of employers out there who offer reputable, respectable employment. You're like debt collectors, only nobody anywhere has agreed to be contacted by you. And nobody owes you a dime. >:(

      Got a call from BR Interviewing at 702-470-2671 on a Tuesday afternoon. He said they are exempt from the do not call list because they are conducting surveys and they are not a telemarketing company. I don't care. Either way, you are annoying and bugging me.

      Called during NBA game. Requested DNC. Hung up. She called back every 15 minutes for 2 hours. Finally answered and screamed over and over. If I had had a whistle, I would have blown it loud and long. In fact, I am going to get one tomorrow.

      I received a call from them at 19:00 my local time but I was sleeping so I couldn't answer. Thank you and God bless you all.

      When was the last time anybody said "Oh, you're exempt from the DNC list? In that case, I'm all ears!" I just read their disclaimer--they're subject to the DNC list; however, they're not required to "cleanse their list" of numbers that are registered on the DNC listing. Bet that'll change if they ever start getting assessed the fines that can be imposed for violating that.  .but we all know that ain't gonna happen.
