I submitted my application online and then went through a standard phone screen. It wasn't too difficult and I didn't find any of the questions confusing. There were some scenario questions, like 'Tell me about a time,' which might be tough depending on your experience.

Behavioral Group Presentation

The interview starts with a 30-minute phone call where they'll go over the role details like hours and pay, and what to expect. They'll ask you some questions about yourself to see if you'd be a good fit for the company culture. If that goes well, you'll be invited for an in-person group interview. You'll get a brief tour, and then a recruiter will walk you through their sales process, showing you a video of it in action. After that, you'll do a role-play exercise with the other interviewees and the recruiter. This is a practice round, so feel free to ask questions. Then, you'll have a one-on-one interview where they'll ask more in-depth questions about your personality and past work experience. You'll also need to do one or more mock sales, so pay close attention during the role-play warm-up. They're there to help, so embrace any feedback as a chance to improve. After this, they'll let you know if you've been accepted. The whole experience felt professional and helpful, with consistent feedback and everyone on the same page. They were very informative and proactively answered many questions.
