The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Cox Media Group in Aug 2011
Interview
The interview consisted of questions like -- tell me about yourself? What makes you qualified to be an account executive? Tell me about your sales record? Can you talk about the radio station? Any other stations?
I interviewed with multiple managers for the 1st interview. The interview went well and the hiring manager stated that the recruiter would be in touch and send an assessment. I sent a thank you the managers for the interview the next day. I Never received a thank you for your time and that it was nice meeting you or any acknowledgment. I followed up a week later to the hiring manager for an update and no response. They ghosted me and I would NOT recommend this company for their lack of professionalism and respect. If they treated you like this in the interview process then it shows how they would treat you as an employee. Stay away.
The interview process consisted of an initial phone call, multipe in-person interviews and a mock sales pitch with different team members. The interview process was not too in depth and took about 2 weeks max.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at Cox Media Group (Omaha, NE) in Nov 2020
Interview
Multiple Interviews. Be prepared to follow up to sell yourself since it is sales oriented. Different manager levels to talk to and it is good idea to reach out to other employees on linkedin beforehand to feel out the climate.
