First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Spring Strategies.
Sales Representative
The interview process involved two meetings. First, a quick 20-minute chat at the office to go over general questions and the job basics. Then, a longer 45-60 minute meeting at a restaurant nearby. This second meeting was more in-depth, covering pay and career growth, and asked the tougher questions. The job is totally commission-based, but they ensure you get at least $350 weekly, even if your sales fall short. The Columbia office is super conveniently located, right across from the mall. There's a 3-week training period where you can expect to earn about $400/week. After training, for the next couple of months, you'll average $400-$600/week. Then you move up to a role averaging $600-$800/week for about 8 months.

Customer Service Representative
The interview process involved two interviews. Upon arrival at the office, candidates were given a short, one-page questionnaire focusing on work ethic. The first interview was a 15-20 minute one-on-one session in an office setting, covering past work experiences, career aspirations, and general get-to-know-you questions. Following this, candidates would wait to hear if they were invited for a second interview. The second interview was longer, lasting about an hour, and took place at a different location. This interview focused more on professional questions related to previous employment.
- Can you describe a situation where you failed and explain how you managed it?
- In your opinion, what distinguishes direct from indirect marketing?
- What makes you a suitable candidate for this company?
Account Executive
After applying, I got called in for an interview really fast. The office is right across from the mall in Columbia, super easy to find. First, I met with a hiring manager for about 15 minutes. We chatted about my past jobs and what I'm looking for in a company. They said they'd let me know if they wanted to move on to the next step. Thankfully, I got a call later that same day for a second interview. I went back two days later for that one. I spent about an hour with a team member. We talked more about how the company is set up and the opportunities for growth.

Account Manager
You will be selling cell phone carrier products to people at Walmart. This is a pyramid scheme, so don't bother applying.
