Interviewed Apr 2012 in Albany, NY (took a day)
First portion is a 30 minute phone interview. If approved to go further then you have a face to face interview that will last for at least four hours. The next process is a ride a long day or two in the field with a current sales representative and if the decision is made to move forward the there is a 6 hour interview with the DSM and the RSD. The final is training. Once the whole process is done it takes about 6 - 8 weeks.

Interviewed Mar 2011 (took a day)
After a month had passed since I had applied, I received an email asking to schedule a phone interview. The interview went great and I was told that I had made it to the second round of the interview process. I never heard from them again, and although I tried numerous times to speak to someone who could give me a direct answer, I received the run around for about two months before seeing that the position was gone.

Interviewed Mar 2009 in Atlanta, GA (took 3 months)
This interview process was long-Very Long! First, there was a phone interview via the head hunter agency. After that a interview was arranged on my behalf with the hiring manager. They have to have two managers in order to interview. The first interview was about an hour. If it goes less than that (trust me you didn't get the gig) The questions were star method question. Give me a situation, what did you do, what was the result.
