      Sales Associate Interview

      Jun 30, 2018
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      Venice
      Declined offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at DFS Group (Venice) in May 2015

      Interview

      I was interviewed for a position as Sales Associate in Venice, Italy. The recruitment process involves different steps. First you are involved in group activities. They did a short presentation of the opening of the new store and then asked us to introduce ourselves to the group talking a bit about our personalities and professional backgrounds. Then there are group activities with other candidates in which there will be role plays. They would present a problem to solve or a situation where the customer is angry or has a problem to solve and there are several complications so they ask the group how they would behave and each one gives an answer, then it is discussed with a group or the group is divided into smaller groups (teams) and you decide a strategy with your team mates. All the different steps were anticipated in a very detailed email I got from the rectruitment office a few days in advance. I thought it was very professional. Eventually they only got back at me a few weeks later with a positive feedback asking me to come back for - I think - the final round but I already found another job.

      Question 1

      The last and more important step is a sales simulation you do in team with another candidate. The recruiters would let you two in a room with many different products and the would pretend to be customers with different necessities and doubts you would quickly need to address.
