Had a phone interview first. Then an in person interview with the Regional Sales Manager. The last step was an interview with the Regional Sales Director. It was a typical sales interview where we talked for about an hour.

It was pretty chill. I went to their San Diego office and chatted with an employee for a bit while waiting, then I met the office manager. He was pretty cool and relaxed. We just talked in his office for about 15 minutes. He looked at my resume and asked me about my sales experience.

Received a recruiter call within a week to go over job details. The interview itself had three of us there for different roles. Midway through, they revealed the actual job was a canvasser, which none of us were prepared for or told about. This caused the interview to lose momentum.
