Interviewed Jan 2010 in Richardson, TX (took a day)
They used to do awful group interviews. Those ended a while ago. There isn't much turnover anymore and I don't see that they're interviewing many people at all. There was a time when a young lady with a bad attitude was doing interviews, but management sniffed her out pretty quick and she's been reassigned to a position that doesn't work with people as much. (Thank goodness! People skills aren't her strong suit!) BTW - I heard some new hires say that they do personality tests and background checks now. Probably because some newer executives have been promoted from the sales team.

Negotiation Details
No negotiation a couple of years ago. Really, if you work at Bluefish (or RightNow as we really call it these days) you're not doing it for the money. Yeah, entry level positions now make about $45K a year, which isn't bad... But everyone there really does the job because they want to help churches. Benefits are pretty amazing and Directors make about $55-$65K, but the money isn't the primary reason any of us do this kind of work.
Other Details
The interview consisted of a Phone Interview and a 1:1 Interview.

Interviewed Nov 2011 (took 2 days)
In order to apply for the job you call them and when they call you back they go through a short interview to ensure that you are at least capable for the position. Then they schedule you for an in-person interview. The impression is that it is going to be a one-on-one interview but it is not quite that way. You are in a group of 3 or 4 and you fill out an application while you wait. There really wasn't any interaction with any of the employees of the company as they all seemed pretty busy. Then they take you on a tour of the facility and then have you sit in a conference room and watch a sampling of their video products as they talk to individuals one-on-one. When they interviewed me the young woman asked me about my previous experience and if I was able to handle quotas and expectations and a couple of other questions. She then offered me the job on the spot and handled me one of their video products in order for me to get more familiar with their work. The interview questions were very short and I was surprised at the speed of it all. I told her I needed to think about it and she said that I had until the end of the day tomorrow to get back to her.

Negotiation Details
There was no negotiation phase. Because this is entry level sales position they basically gave you a paper detailing their compensation plan and you could accept it or not.

Interviewed Oct 2011 (took a day)
I arrived 30 minutes early. I thought the interview process could have been a whooooole lot better. I was there with two other gentlemen. The hiring rep took the three of us around to show us the facility and the area, if hired on, we would be working. This is supposed to be a christian-based organization which was a plus in my books. But, as we walked in to look at the sales floor and into a room in which the three of us had to watch a movie about what Bluefish is about. I am not judging the organization, however there was secular music playing over the loud speakers which kind of made me think ok...not appropriate if we are to sell to and make contact with churches and other christian organizations. At the onset, the lady who interviewed us came into the room, passed out a commission breakdown sheet and I was called into the room immediately next door. The lady seemed so uninterested in what I was saying and I even caught her rolling her eyes. Now I do understand sometimes,an employers would do things to get you off centered but it was really distracting and it made me really reconsider if I would have wanted to work for a company who had this type of interviewing tactics. At the onset, She stated she had 46 interviews to do and only had 6 positions available. I interviewed on a Friday and she stated if we have not heard back from them by Thursday of the following week, then the positions have been filled.

The interview process at first builds you up as if you will have a one on one interview. First you email your information or call (they had an ad on craigs list) Its a Christian based company. Can you say Cattle Call! Terrible experience! He didnt know our names but emailed us as if he was looking forward to meeting you one on one. I get there 15 minutes early resume and type test in hand (they dont even ask for it just resume) then two other people showed up. Interviewee greets us (the one that emailed us all) doesnt even introduce him self properly (shake hands or even ask each of our names) just gives us a tour takes us to a conference room to watch a product they have (which was poor quaility at best) gives us history about the company and a handout the hourly and commision structure and health insurance (excellent benefits) vacation time (great) and free gym membership next door! And then takes us one by one in an office an simply for 3 to 4 minutes to ask us what he wanted him to remember most about me? After we were done he took us to the door and told us if we didnt here from him by Feb 18th he made his decision. And there was two others at the door to do the same thing Im sure. So if he does this weekly thats potential of 300 candidates for 3 slots. Honestly It would be easier to review each candates qualifications FIRST, then call to screen out SECOND and THIRD to do a panel interview, ask there names AND spend a little more time with them and PREPARE the candidate it is a panel interview. (To me this was the worst interview I have had yet)
