I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Ricoh (Milford, CT) in Nov 2013
Interview
I applied online. I got an e-mail asking me to make an appointment for a phone interview. The phone interview was really basic, the interviewer pretty much just asked questions about my resume. (She sounded like an automated voice machine, but she was a person)Then they sent me a link to an assessment, then invited me to a face-to-face interview. The interviewer was absolutely the worst. He did not have my resume, he asked questions that had little to do with the job and how i would perform as an entry level candidate. I was told it would be an hour long interview, it was about 15 minutes long. The interviewer gave me his card and told me to call him after Thanksgiving so that we can schedule a "ride around." Basically me shadowing an account executive (they should really change that to sales rep.).
nothing I can recall. the process was as you would expect and you can see from the other reviews. There are questions and there are answers then a second interview if necessary.
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Ricoh (Glasgow, Scotland)
Interview
Invited for initial in-person interview after submitting CV and Cover letter, for them to basically tell me in person that from my CV they didn't think I had enough experience. Timewasters.
Interview questions [2]
Question 1
Questions were not clear, but basically was asked if I know the Scottish Market. I proceeded to explain that I had a few scottish clients in my previous sales role, but they didn't really give me an opportunity to speak. Their Head of Sales for UK and Head of Sales for Scotland don't understand the 80/20 rule and just like the sound of their own voice.
Very smooth. 2 rounds of interviews. One was a phone interview. After the phone interview, you the manager. The manager asked basic questions around your experience. Additionally, he'll walk you through what typical day looks like.
