Interview
Interview process was fairly simple. After initially applying I recieved a phone call 2days later from their HR department in which they conducted a light screening to see if I would be a good fit for the role. After getting the ok to proceed to the next step. I was told I would have a phone interview later that week with a hiring manager. This interview was also pretty simple. It consisted of your typical customer service interview questions (i.e. "Name a time when you had to deal with an angry customer, what was the situation, and what did you do to diffuse the situation?"). Overall the interview lasted about 30mins and once I was done they immediately informed me that they would like me to come in and meet in person with a department manager for one final round of interviews. This interview was alot tougher then the 1st call. When i arrived, i was told i would be interviewing with 3 managers as apposed to 1. This initially made me nervous a little but I play to win, so I put my game face on and got myself mentally prepared. This interview had alot behavioral type interview questions and focused on sales alot more.
