Accepted Offer – Interviewed in Greenbelt, MD Nov 2011 – Reviewed May 8, 2013

Interview Details – Very easy process with the Regional Vice President of the office, very well constructed with the intentions to find the best characteristics in the candidate. Some questions were open-ended which allowed me to express myself as not only an employee but also as a person which helped me relate to the interviewer, showing that this company isn't only about the numbers of the success but the personal success of each employee.

Interview Question – Where do you see yourself within the next few years?   View Answer

Negotiation Details – Very simple, I had the skills that were being searched for and I could tell that this would be a place I would enjoy working.

Sales Representative at Power Home Remodeling Group

No Offer – Interviewed in Rosemont, IL Feb 2013 – Reviewed May 2, 2013

Interview Details – Upon applying for Power HRG they sent me an email letting me know that I wasn't a good fit for their company. After applying a second time and calling in they like my persistence and I got an interview.

Interview Question – They really took the time to get to know who I am during the interview. Didn't really ask questions off the resume, they basically did some small talk at the beginning of the interview with some questions regarding my job history, what I was doing now, etc. Then came the pitch for the job and what I would be doing. After the pitch they asked me if I could or could not do the job basically.   Answer Question

Field Marketer at Power Home Remodeling Group

Accepted Offer – Interviewed in Marlborough, MA May 2012 – Reviewed Apr 5, 2013

Interview Details – Lied about the hours. Lied about the advancement opportunities. Claimed that it is typically a 3-interview process, but offers the job after the 1st interview to make you feel special (you're not). All they really want to ask is "Do you have a pulse?"... "Do you have a criminal record?"... and "Can you walk for extensive hours throughout a day?"... Those are the only questions that matter.

Interview Question – How well can you handle rejection?   View Answer

Negotiation Details – No negotiation. $26k base and bonuses are relatively scarce.

Sales Representative at Power Home Remodeling Group

No Offer – Interviewed in Feb 2013 – Reviewed Mar 18, 2013

Interview Details – I got an interview from going to my career fair at school. Once in the office, everyone was friendly but I had to wait 25 minutes for my interviewer because I guess he was late or something. It was very unprofessional as I had class later that day and wouldn't have rushed to be there on time. The interview process was pretty standard and the man was very nice.

Interview Question – How would you be able to deal with a lot of rejection over the phone?   Answer Question

Marketing at Power Home Remodeling Group

Declined Offer – Interviewed in Stratford, CT – Reviewed Jan 10, 2013

Interview Details – I received a call from HR saying that they liked my experience and wanted to set up an interview. I was currently employed so I wanted to make sure the time off of work was worthwhile, so I asked a bunch of questions. The main question I asked was about how much sales were involved in the position. I was currently in a sales position and was looking for a position geared away towards sales. I was told that this position was marketing not sales. So I accepted the interview . When I arrived to the interview the office was very cool and hip looking. It looked like a place I would enjoy working. They even had a flat screen television in the waiting room playing ESPN. I was taken to a room to be interviewed by man who did not seem much older than me. ( I am 25). His title was VP of marketing. He started of by asking some basic questions about my experience pretty standard. Then proceeded to tell me about the company. At this point he started to
sound pretty scripted which was a red flag. The interview started to take a different direction from this point on. I know longer felt like I had to sell my self to the company it was like he was selling the company to me. One thing he stressed is that they only promote with in. Everybody has to start at the bottom. Basically I would start out by going to a neighborhood and going door to door and asking residents if they would like an estimate on doors or windows. Sounds like sales to me. After the initial speal we had a little Q and A , and before you know it he offered me a job on the spot. I told him I would need some time to think about it. About 3 days after the interview I decided to call and decline the offer. I called numerous times and left a message telling him I wanted to discuss the descion I had made. I got no call back or email back very unprofessional. Then two weeks later I get a call from HR saying I have to report to orientation on Monday. There was no communication. This company has such high turnover that they don't even know who accepts or declines offers.

Interview Question – Very standard questionsz   Answer Question

Reason for Declining – Employer seemed to have high turnover rate

Outbound Marketer at Power Home Remodeling Group

Accepted Offer – Interviewed in Cranford, NJ – Reviewed Dec 1, 2012

Interview Details – Annoying interview process. They ask you to suit up when you're just going to be wearing a uniform anyway. Some people have to go in for TWO interviews, some don't. Its pointless and alot of lying is going on that you will discover after 2 or 3 weeks with the company

The only thing I liked was the hiring process. There wasn't a ridiculous amount of paperwork to be filled out.

Tell people the TRUTH. They say youll work from 11a-7p . You might think, oh okay so we'll be back at the office at 7pm and ill be heading home shortly after. WRONG!
You head back to the office around 8pm (thats the time the call center closes.) Add another 15 or 20 minutes for the van driver to pick everyone up from different sections of town. Add drive time back to the office. Some could be close, some could be nearly an hour away! Basically, expect to be home around 9pm very often. You're wasting about 10 hours every day with this company. I wish they'd tell you THAT in the interview.

Interview Question – What would you say is your WEAKEST point as a salesman?   View Answer

Negotiation Details – No negotiating... Everyone makes $26k a year. if you want more money, they expect you to put up numbers. which is fine BUT the website said base pay is between 26 and 36k LIES
