The whole process took about 3 weeks from applying. It was pretty easy. I did an on-demand video interview first, then a video call with the territory managers. That call was mostly just to get to know the team and talk about my resume. After that, they told me about the benefits and pay. They asked if I wanted to continue. At the end, they said HR would contact me about the next steps, but it's been two weeks and I haven't heard anything. It's wild that such a big company would just ghost people. Awful. Don't bother.

It started with an online automated interview, then I had a Zoom interview. They asked a lot about my sales experience, book knowledge, and teamwork. It went well and was pretty easy, even though I didn't have much sales experience.

They sent me a link to record myself answering 5 questions. Then I got an automated rejection email. The email came in before a human could review my answers, so it seems like they were just collecting data instead of actually interviewing for an open position. I thought better of you Scholastic, but since I'm going back to school to be a teacher, I'm going to push to ensure we use your competition instead.
