Interviewed Sep 2011 in Chicago, IL (took 2 days)
Easy online application followed by a simple pohone interview by the recruiter. Once you come in for the one on one you talk with the recruiter about pay and what the day islike then you sit and wait for a manager who is too busy to talk with you then they ask you the same questions as the recruiter. It was though they did not care.

Interviewed Feb 2010 in Chicago, IL (took a day)
Phone interview with recruiter and then an in-person with the recruiter and one Sales Manager.
Sales manager was unprepared and seemingly nervous. She had not reviewed my resume prior to the interview. Asked standard (and substandard) interview questions.
Sales Manager was cold and standoffish but still ultimately made me an offer.

There was really no negotiating to be done. Company won't really talk about negotiating compensation for an entry level position like this.
Other Details
I got the interview through an Employee Referral and the interview consisted of a Phone Interview, a 1:1 Interview and a Background Check.

Interviewed Aug 2011 (took a day)
There were three people in all that interviewed me. First was the recruiter who is a nice guy and easy to get along with. Second was the "tough guy", its been different for various employees but the purpose is to see how you keep your calm in the face of a 'mean' person. third was the director of the whole office. This is the guy who you have to find something in common with and impress him by saying how hard you'll work and that you'll do anything to take the job, a competitor, never quit, etc.

Interviewed Dec 2009 in Chicago, IL (took a day)
You have a phone interview with the recruiter. As long as you use proper English and don't sound like you shoot heroin for breakfast then you'll get a face to face interview.
The face to face interview is the same. Dress nice, and try to sound intelligent. You'll get the job no matter what. I worked with some VERY strange people there. I mean, the type of people who you wouldn't really want to be friends with because of the fear of waking up next to them in the morning without any knowledge of how you got there. The normal crowd and I always tried to figure out how the heck they got hired. And I'm not making this up. about 30 minutes-1 hour was sitting in the lunch room talking about this very matter.
Interview Questions
Negotiation Details
No negotiating. You can't negotiate salary. It's 12 dollars an hour while you're in training. then after that it's like 5.45 an hour and the rest of your check is a draw(commissioned fronted to you that you have to pay back through selling)

Interviewed Jun 2010 in Chicago, IL (took 2 days)
This company is grossly disorganized in my opinion. The interview process was horrible. The recruiter sent important company document until an hour and half before the interview. The recruiter called an hour before the interview to reschedule because he could not locate a manage. Once I got to the office I sat in the waiting room for nearly a half hour while waited for someone to get a hold of the hiring manage and recruiter.
Interview Questions
Reason for Declining
This is not a position for an skilled and experience salesperson. This company is very, very disorganized. The managers make poor choices when it comes to new hires. The manager that I interviewed with was not prepare to interview me at all, nor did she review my resume at all. Current employees shared stories about the office turnover. In my opinion the turnover is so high because the managers and recruiters do not spend the proper time interview and screening individuals. After this interview, I don't think that many of the managers are fit to lead a group of representatives. If you are interview with this company, think carefully before you waste your time with an interview. It may not be worth your trip.
Other Details
I applied In-Person and the interview consisted of a Phone Interview and a 1:1 Interview.

Interviewed Jun 2010 in Taguig (Philippines) (took a day)
Everything seems to be organized. The time they say is the time you'll be entertained. Technical exam,then 3 interviews. First is the technical panel interview then with the project manager and web development manager. Everyone seems very nice and has a sense of humor and seemed a good environment to work in. You're also told exactly what you will be doing and how you would progress in you career.

Interviewed Dec 2009 in Chicago, IL (took 2 days)
Company called me because a friend of mine worked there. Talked with their recruiter who gave me an overall look at the company. Wasn't too hard to get a job as long as you can understand basic sales cultures, and what is typically expected of you.
