ABM Industries Business Development Manager interviews, decoded.

They sent an email with some initial screening questions. There were 9 questions in total, asking about why I'm interested in the company, my strengths and weaknesses, and what I do outside of work. The questions also tried to get info on my salary from the past two years, which is a smart way to approach the negotiation part.

I applied through the website, and then a recruiter reached out for an initial screening. After that, I had three interviews with the hiring manager, regional sales manager, and operations manager. The whole process was pretty straightforward and took about a month.

Started with a great initial interview with the recruiter, who was professional and energetic. They clearly laid out the job requirements and what they expected. A few days later, I was informed about the next steps, and we set up a video call with the hiring manager. However, the day before that meeting, the recruiter contacted me to say they had an urgent need to fill a similar role in another city, and the hiring manager needed to prioritize that. The recruiter promised I'd be the first to interview with the hiring manager once that other position was filled. It's been two weeks now, and after hearing nothing, I reached out for an update but haven't received a response.
