Ho presentato la mia candidatura tramite un selezionatore. La procedura ha richiesto un giorno. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Paychex (Mendota Heights, MN) nel mese di gen 2013
Colloquio
The interview starts with a timed math test. The test questions are ticky weird questions like:
Two men went fishing and caught 50 fish. Man one caught twice as many as man two. How many fish did man two catch? -- Odd questions like that.
Next you sit in an interview with probably two people and they only ask sales questions. The questions are like 'what would your manager say are your 3 best sales qualities' or what makes you a strong salesperson. I found the interview to be very impersonal and the interviewers were very dry and uninteresting. The job description they gave me was that I'd be making 100 cold calls per day to local businesses to offer them payroll. From those calls they ask that I have at least 50 presentations. Of those 50, 10 of them need to be closing presentations, of those 10, 2 of them need to buy the product.
If you get past the first interview, you should expect to have at least two more and a ride along with one of the sales reps to see if you'd be interested in what they do.

Since you have no business to business experience, why would we want to hire you?
My initial thought was: you wouldn't.
At that point I knew this job was NOT for me
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.
