Ho presentato la mia candidatura tramite un selezionatore. La procedura ha richiesto 2 mesi. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Paychex (Chicago, IL) nel mese di mag 2016
Colloquio
The writing is on the wall. I read so many reviews about their terrible interview process and the awful way they drag their candidates through the mud. Against my better judgement, I decided to ignore the masses before me and move forward with 5 interviews. Step 1: recruitered reach out to me on LinkedIn(I had never heard of this company before). Step 2: sales assessment(easy) Step 3: met for lunch with a manager Step 4: ride along Step 5: follow up call with the manager Step 6: interview with another manager. At this point, I hadn't heard anything for a few days so I reached out to the recruiter who said the hiring manager wanted to refer me to another sales position. I asked for feedback all I was told was "I was a better fit for the other sales department" Step 7: Passed along to different recruiter Step 8: Face to face with District Manager Step 9: Recruiter said they are "still working on putting a manager in place" Step 10: Auto-response
If you know a candidate is not a good fit for the role, be upfront. It doesn't take 10 steps to end up at the starting line. I took too much time off work and risked my job for an worthless opportunity. My advice to everyone else, is do not waste your time applying unless you don't have a job. Besides, the employees that still work there, aren't exactly the best of the best so I'm not sure their selection process is that great to begin with. The girl I shadowed with asked what my race was and stated she was a design major in collage and "doesn't consider herself a salesperson" and was "just doing this until she can find a job in fashion"
3 different interviews with 3 different managers. Followed that with a job shadow to allow me to see a day in the field. Then an offer was made and I moved to the location I interviewed for

Colloquio
Had an HR screening, then I had an interview with 2 Managers which went great, and a final round interview with the Senior District Sales Manager. I emailed the Senior Manager to schedule time for the final round but he liked to act like he was all busy and important, after about an hour of no response I sent him another email asking if he had a time in mind and responded within a minute. The Senior Manager had this inflated sense of worth that apparently he's too high up there to bother responding within an hour to an initial email if it's not convenient for him. Following the final interview, I received the standard rejection email and asked for feedback from the Senior Manager on what I could've done better. Never received a response; like I said before, his inflated sense of worth makes him think it's ok to not answer a basic request.
