    Sales Engineer Interview

    Anonymous Interview Candidate in Indianapolis, IN

    Negative Experience
    Easy Interview

    Application

    I applied through college or university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Trane (Indianapolis, IN) in October 2018.

    Interview

    The worst experience I have ever had. I was lied to about 100% commission in the initial interview and I was told that 100% commission was a huge stretch. Then after driving all the way to Indianapolis I was told that it was 100% commission and then was berated about whether or not I believed I could even do this job or if I really wanted it. The interviews were VERY unprofessional the entire time and treated me horribly. Such an embarrassment for a company. Even if I was offered the job I would have never wanted to work in such a terrible environment. I can't believe I wasted my time. If you are applying for this company please consider the way they just treat someone who is interviewing.

      Interview

      Before an interview, you have to complete a personality and aptitude test. A recruiter from corporate will contact you and ask you various interview questions. I was interviewed two times. Then they'll select an office for you and you will then have to interview with the managers at the designated office. If all goes well and they accept you, you go to a 5 month training adventure to La Crosse Wisconsin.

      A few days later, I was invited to a recruitment event. It was held in the party room in a bar with 5 people from the company (including the recruiter I met at the career fair) and over 15 applicants. Basically chatting with each recruiter and other applicants. Served with foods, but was standing and talking for about 3 hours. The event was the final round and they made their decisions based on it.
