The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Penske Truck Leasing (Baltimore, MD) in Mar 2010
Interview
Penske is a thorough interviewing company. They will most likely have you sit with more than one person two possibly three times. For sales Positions it is important to provide a sales/marketing plan as they will ask in different and detailed ways how you plan to immediately contribute. A focus on gaining new business right away is a strong position to take, but do not neglect current customers and your support staff. Having a plan for how to create a team atmosphere from your office assistant to your service managers is a HUGE part. hint* buy your mechanics pizza/donuts etc... they'll love ya and it will make a great first impression.

I applied online, which was pretty easy; got a phone call week later and scheduled a time. The interview was very laid back and the questions were directed to my past experiences handling a fast paced environment and learning things on the fly.
