Interview questions [1]
Question 1
if I had a dissatisfied customer over the phone, what would be my first step?
Quick and easy but lack of communication with poor follow up lead to me finding another opportunity. I have heard positive feedback from others who ended up accepting positions there, maybe mine was an off situation.
2 step interview. Got the opportunity to shadow. Good atmosphere, comfortable, nice office, people were nice. Nice rooftop for lunch and job that can be remote. Seemed like the best logistics company to work for
I applied online. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at C.H. Robinson (Cincinnati, OH)
Interview
Overall, this was a pretty neutral experience. It all came down to experience in the industry, which I had minimal, but extensive sales experience. I had multiple interviews and enjoyed all conversations except the VP from corporate. He was disengaged and did not seem excited about the company, which turned me off. Not a difficult process, but I would not recommend interviewing unless you have experience.
