First I had a phone call with a recruiter. Then, I went for an on-site interview with one person. After that, there were three more people I met with on-site. The last interview was on-site with the hiring manager.

Behavioral

GannettLocal seems like a cool place to work with a young culture and good job security because it's backed by Gannett Media. The interview was pretty standard. I drove to Scottsdale, waited in the lobby, and then had my interview. The interviewer was young and nice, and talked about upward potential. He asked behavioral questions, so be ready with answers. Then, I waited and was taken to his boss's office. She asked similar questions plus some new ones and asked if I had any questions. Then they walked me out. They really care about finding people who fit their culture and have a 'work hard, play hard' mentality. Show you're a good salesperson and have a fun personality.

Behavioral Technical

Got contacted by a recruiter. We had a good talk about the job and the pay. Then I had to do some online tests. A few days later, I got called in for an interview. I met with two managers and a sales coach. The recruiter called me back the next day to see how I thought the interviews went and asked for my feedback. After that, they had me come in again for a final interview with the Director of Sales.
