Job application help

I've applied for a few jobs (9) and as much as i hate this place..... i'm prepared to wait until the right job comes along!

Well I had 2 calls on Friday asking for interviews with me so have arranged these. Had a call today for another one (at this point i'm starting to think didn't think my CV was that good)

Anyway to cut a long story short....... two of my interviews been sent the details on email and they are based in the same building, on the same floor . So have done a bit of googling and the only information i can find on these companies is job adverts, no company website at all. So after a bit more investigation on Companies House Website, they both have the same registered office up in Nottingham and were both registered within days of each other in October 2008.

Now my other interview i'm going to go to, as i've heard of the company as has drew and my parents as a good marketing company. But my gut is telling me not to touch these other two...............

what would you do...... go or not?

Go along, find out what they are, report back and then spread the word in the local press

What do you have to lose?

Kidneys, if they're really black-market organ harvesters.

But what're the odds?

This was my concern that it turns out to be a sales company dressed as a "Marketing Company", as I know its not what Lily wants. I guess there is no harm going just dont want it to be a wasted trip.
