Technical Other

The interview process involved a phone interview, a personality test, and then a second face-to-face interview. This whole thing dragged on for weeks, which was honestly pretty annoying. I was pretty open with my availability, so it felt like I was always the one adjusting to their schedule, making me feel like they weren't that interested.

Confirmed questions3 questions
  • The math part of the interview was surprisingly extensive and took up a significant amount of time.
  • I'm pretty good at math, so I didn't find it difficult, but I did spend a lot of time on it to make sure I got everything right.
  • While I thought the math section was a bit much, I just went along with it.

Behavioral Presentation

It was great, really set me up for success. It gave me some ideas for my current business too. Two district managers asked me questions, bouncing them off each other. I felt comfortable.
