It was brief but clear. I liked that I knew exactly what the interview was for in the first round, which was different from other marketing companies I've interviewed with. The interviewer was direct, as he said he would be. He asked me a few times to consider things from the employer's perspective when I mentioned negative points from reviews I'd read. He was very knowledgeable about the business and spoke well. I was impressed.

I applied online and got a quick call back for an interview. When I arrived, the office seemed professional, but the interview itself was not. The job I was interviewing for seemed different from what was described. I was told to research the company, but the Hiring Manager hadn't seen my resume. This interview was more about the company than about me. They wanted to put me in sales, which was insulting. It felt like a waste of time.

Behavioral Presentation

The process was smooth and fast after I applied online. The first interview was 30 minutes long. The second interview was with someone who would be my future Branch Manager and it took place at a Fry's store so I could see the Kiosk in action. This role is all about selling Direct TV and AT&T Mobile, requires working evenings 6 days a week, and offers the chance to start your own branch in 6-8 months. It felt a bit like a pyramid scheme, but if you don't mind being on your feet all day and can persuade people to buy, the commission could be decent for an entry-level job.
