Presentation Behavioral

Applied about a month ago. After about a week, I had a screening call. Then, there were two in-person interviews which took quite a while. It was nearly a month before I got the offer letter. During the interviews, they might ask you to do a demo sales speech.

Behavioral Technical

It was a pretty straightforward interview process. I first spoke with someone at a job fair, and then I had a phone interview with HR. They asked basic questions like why I wanted to work there and about my past consultative sales experience.
