Pareto Manager Interview Questions
& Process

It started with a quick phone call to go over the basics of the job. Then, if that went well, I was invited to a virtual or in-person assessment day that lasted about six hours. During the assessment day, we had to give a 3-minute pitch on why we'd be great in a sales role. Out of the 21 people there, only 6 were successful. From there, it's usually that you get trained by Pareto and placed with one of their clients for an entry-level sales job, but there's a small chance you could interview internally. I actually got an internal interview with Pareto at their office, which was in-person, and I had to do a 5-minute presentation. A few hours after meeting the team, I got a rejection call.

The interview process starts with a knowledge test about the company and an intro about yourself. Then, you're put into breakout groups for a team activity. After that, there's a 3-minute pitch while also doing a Q&A with a current employee. Finally, you find out if you got the job. It's an interactive setup, 5 hours long with a 20-minute break. It's extremely tiring. This is the whole process from start to finish.

It was a question-based interview, situational based where I was asked what I would do in certain situations pertaining to the role in order to see if I was suitable for the role that I was applying for.
