Waste of time. Multiple rounds and an assessment. Had to do an entire PowerPoint presentation for a customer looking to purchase Zuri furniture. I had to compose an email to her as well along with the presentation. After that, I met with the HR manager and had a phone interview. Then a timed assessment followed, which featured two parts - one was examining actual photos sent from customers in which you have to understand what went wrong (broken or missing parts that were hard to see, furniture that was actually incorrectly made). I passed this part with flying colors and was told that usually doesn't happen. They use trick questions/situations that do not even pertain to the job description or what you'll be doing day to day to try and confuse you. For example, the second part was an exercise in which you have to schedule a furniture delivery route in the shortest/most efficient way possible. You have to play around with the routes and change what was already entered to get the optimal version. The base pay was around $40,000. Their commission is 1%. So...to make $80,000, you have to sell 4 MILLION dollars worth of cheap furniture. Seems fair right? I got rejected because I wanted to negotiate the pay, based on my experience and skillset. The job was still vacant for many months, understandably so.
Interview questions [1]

I applied online. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Zuri Furniture (Dallas, TX) in Aug 2021
Interview
Had to take 3 assessments first was a room concept board for a client with their furniture, one was a delivery route assessment and the last was responding to emails from in happy customers. They have you do work as if you already work for them to “test” you on things that aren’t required in your position. Then They tell you didn’t get the job even though you do well on all 3 assessment. A complete waste of time and energy and they also lie and advertise that you get paid a base of $50,000 to $80,000 and that isn’t true that’s how much you could make if you push their horrible designed furniture and make commission with a low base pay. Overall they have been search for this position for moths and I know this because I’ve had my eyes on thinking this would be a great opportunity with a start up company.
