Interviewed Jan 2010 (took 2 days)
The area sales manager (whom is typically over district managers of 2-3 states) interviewed me over the phone. The position that I applied for was approximately 1000 miles away so our company didn't fly me in. They ways want to know why you are interested in the position and also in relocating to the appllied city of the position. What are some of your greatest achievements etc. At the end of the interview, he stated that another manager would be contacting me in 15 min. He called and it was a similar format. The main Area sales manager then called back a few days later and stated that another manager would be calling me at aspecified time. This person did and everything went well. After a few days if no feedback even though promised that I would have, I never got any calls back. I sent a thank you e-mail and a couple of follow up inquiries but never heard back from anyone.

Interviewed Nov 2009 in New Orleans, LA (took 1 week)
1:1 Interview, followed by drug testing and Internal Background check. Employment starts immediately but the state Fire Marshall must give a more in depth background check for licensing.
The office and admin staff are terrific people and they seem eager to aid in information and sales help. I have never been denied a request for information from the office staff. The management team is extremely experienced in sales and new employees should heed their advice.

Interviewed Aug 2008 (took a day)
Very easy interview: I was asked about my previous sales experience and problem solving skills. I was asked about my strenght and weaknesses. It was over in less than 20 minutes. it is commission only job so I guess they don't care to much. The turnover rate in their Sales department is huge.

Interviewed Nov 2009 in Boca Raton, FL (took 6 weeks)
I had a phone interview with the executive recruiter. Afterwards, I was scheduled for a phone interview with the HR leader. Successfully completed that interview and completed a full day interview with several HR members. They ended up not offering the position, I recently saw the same position posted without relocation and as a temporary position.

Interviewed Jan 2010 (took 1 week)
Had interest in ADT for their reputation as an honest firm providing a needed product/service. The Commercial Sales Division had been divided and I spoke with the Small Business Sales group.
PROS: Strong reputation. Brand recognition.
CONS: Earnings are 100% commissions. The upside potential is around $40-45$K during first year. Period.
Interview Questions
Reason for Declining
Solid company for someone with no sales experience. For seasoned pros, the sales compensation plan is not attractive

Interviewed Apr 2008 (took 4+ weeks)
The interview process was very easy, it consisted of a phone interview and a one on one, basically they were in need of sales reps and he hired me on the spot. Just show them that you are a hunter, hardworker, and want to make some money they will pretty much hire you.

Interviewed Aug 2009 in Charlotte, NC (took a day)
The hiring process was simple, the interview process was simple as well. They will use two managers to interview you and the first will ask you all of the nuts and bolts questions and the next manager will ask you questions about your own personal experience and how you would react in certain situations. However, the recruiter and managers are not on the same page. Because the information the recruiter tells you isn't realistic to what the job may actually entail and vice versa. Just be careful and ask plenty of questions to be comfortable with this company.
