Average interview
Application
I applied through college or university. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Groupon (Chicago, IL) in Nov 2019
Interview
Spoke to them at University career fair. They liked me and scheduled a preliminary interview the next day on campus, and after that interview they invited me to the Chicago Headquarters for another interview.
In person interview to walk through experience and knowledge as well as problem solving focused interview questions. Sales experience and pitching are also a focus of the overall final interview.
It was pretty easy. There was a call with a recruiter that included some simple questions and felt more like conversations and then an in person interview with the manager(s) in the Groupon Chicago office.
