Trelevate Sales Specialist Interview Questions
& Process

This was the worst interview experience I have ever had. Don't be fooled by the attractive website and Glassdoor reviews because this place is a scam. Their office is literally a single office room without windows. The interviewer felt nervous and uncomfortable the whole time which made the interview awkward within the first few minutes. There was no charm or warm culture feel that the website suggest. If you look at all of the available positions on Trevelate's website, you will notice that business development rep's, sales consultants, and outside sales positions all of the same vague job description. They don't want to tell you that they are all the same job and you will actually be a sales representative for Ooma until you're in their "office". Called calls. You're not contracted by a company to build their sales team, you are the sales team.

I had a bit of trouble finding the place because the business name wasn't on the directories by the elevators. Once I met the manager, the interview felt more like a conversation, which was different from what I'm used to. She made me feel comfortable and didn't sit behind her desk, but instead sat opposite me with nothing in between us. We talked about the company, the clients, and how the commission structure works. She also asked me some challenging questions about what drives me, my accomplishments, and times I didn't succeed.

The HR folks in Phoenix, AZ reach out to set up the interview. The in-person interview went pretty well. They'll tell you about the company and give you some background on the product you'd be selling. They're happy to answer all your questions, and you'll definitely feel like they're interested in you as a candidate. They want to hear about your past and what you've taken away from it.
