      Sales Associate Interview

      Jun 9, 2009
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      Reston, VA
      Declined offer
      Neutral experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Cbeyond (Reston, VA) in May 2009

      Interview

      I first heard of CBeyond through a recruiter who told me that it was a new communications company with a young and aggressive work force. I was excited because as a recent grad It sounded like something I would be interested in. I had a telephone interview with the recruiter to gauge my interest in sales and was passed to the hiring manager. The office is located in a nice building and has only been open since january. I was told that because of this there was a lot of opportunity for growth. My interview was at 4:30 and I had to fight DC traffic to make it there at 4:10. As soon as I arrived I noticed that someone else was being interviewed. The interview lasted a long time and I didnt get interviewed till 5. I was not happy because the recruiter had stressed that I be on time and I felt that was a bit unprofessional on their part. Once my interview started I was asked the basic sales questions, for example.. Why sales? What makes you motivated? and so on. I could tell the manager was extremely impressed with my prior sales experience. I asked a lot of in depth questions to find out more about the job and discovered it was a straight door to door sales job. I did not like they did not give you a car allowance and they paid for your gas based on appointments. The next step was a ride a long with reps. It was exactly what I thought, going door to door saying anything to open up new business. The hours were crazy. First you had to be at the office by 7:30 for training/meetings then out in the field at 10, return to the office at 5:30 to report your sales then go home. I didn't get home till about 7. After I evaluated the hours, pay, and type of work I decided this was not a fit for me.
