I had a phone call interview that lasted about an hour. After that, I flew to Vegas for an in-person interview that spanned two days. During those two days, I shadowed people in the office. It was a pretty fun experience because I got to hang out with current account executives and even go on appointments and meetings with them. They also took me out to a great restaurant on the Las Vegas Strip.

I met with the Asst GM and GM for the interview. I knew Danny personally. The interview went fine at the time. Once I interviewed I accepted the position, however, this was 5 years ago. I did not apply for this job through Glass Door.
