I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Konica Minolta (South Florida, FL)
Interview
First Interviewed by recruiter over the phone.
Second Interview is with the manager of the branch location you work at. Looks for some one who is trainable; not too experienced and set in their ways. They want a person who they can teach the way the sell. About 30 minutes long if they like you. If they like you, you will be required to take a personality test called the Chally. If you pass this test then you will move on to the next interview.
Third Interview: With either Vice President or President of the company. I was told it was informal and more just an area where they would make an offer but it was a full interview with similar questions to the previous interview. They are big on prospecting. They want to know you are not scared to knock on doors and interrupt people. Do not be set on selling approaches such at top down or bottom down selling. They do like you to be able to door knock as well as make cold calls.
*Worst part about interview process was being strung along for a month or longer for hiring. Because their owned by Konica Minolta they Konica Minolta hiring process is very long and they seemed to be in no rush to get me in the office even though they already told me I was hired it was a matter of paper work being completed. So, I went for a month without any income and questioning if I even really had the job. Also seemed like management from Copysource seemed confused about the whole hiring process because it was new to them since they are using Konica Minolta's hiring process.

Question 1
Why do you think you would be a good candidate for this job?
I applied online. I interviewed at Konica Minolta (Düsseldorf) in Jan 2024
Interview
Im Verlauf unseres Gesprächs wurde die Stellenbeschreibung ausführlich besprochen, was für mich informativ war. Bedauerlicherweise habe ich nach dem Vorstellungsgespräch keine Rückmeldung erhalten, obwohl mir im Gespräch eine solche zugesichert wurde. Dies empfinde ich als unprofessionell, insbesondere von einem weltweit tätigen Unternehmen.
The interview process was inadequate. I received a standard rejection email that offered no room for dialogue, despite my clear overqualification. Regrettably, my request for feedback was met with silence.

I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Konica Minolta (Washington, DC) in Aug 2023
Interview
Phone screening went great, she told me it was a "breath of fresh air" speaking with me and gave false hope. Ended up ghosting me completely, even after several follow-up messages. Wouldn't recommend ghosting applicants, given how poor their company's reviews are.
