I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Houzz (San Diego, CA) in Jun 2016
Interview
I had a brief phone introduction (maybe 15 minutes) followed by an extensive Skype interview since I was an out of state applicant. The Skype interview lasted over an hour. After that, I flew to San Diego (on my own penny) for a final interview which consisted of a 30 minute role play where you try to make the sale based on research you've done and a scenario they give you. After the role play, I met with the Sales Manager and interviewed for an hour with him.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
If I spoke with your current boss/manager, what do you think they'd say your #1 strength is?
Met with recruiter then hiring manager and team lead manager I would be working with. Pretty fast overall process once they have reached out to you. Several quick questions about experience and then metrics into their company and what the role entails.
It was an efficient process. One phone interview with their recruiter and then an in person interview with a manager. Role playing was part of the interview process (the manager gave me a specific complaint and I had to resolve the customer’s problem).

Interview
Thorough but comfortable! I had multiple interviews, but everyone was very personable. They requested an at home typing speed test (to be completed after the first interview) and asked me to email the results to the recruiter.
