Called a well known company about a job and was instead told to give my information for a $100 promotion??

This is a big normal trucking company. I call their HR at my local DC. The HR robot tells me to call this number since I'm an applicant. I call that number. On Hold.

They pick up and start asking me my info because I've been "chosen for a $100 reward!". I said I don't need $100, I need a job. They said we'll give you more information about the company you're calling about afterwards. I just said right, right and hung up.

What kind of scam is this and why the hell is the HR of my local DC giving out their number?!

Like WHAT?
