The interview process for this position is fairly simple. You will send in a resume and cover letter (if you're smart) online and if an HR recruiter is interested they will reach out to you via email within a couple days. They will ask if you are interested in a phone interview (screening) and ask you to follow a link to schedule a time. A person in HR will call you in that time for a call that lasts literally 5 to 10 minutes. The point of this call is to ask why you want to work at Red ventures, if you've operated multiple programs on a computer simultaneously, if you have sales experience meeting metrics, etc. Many posters on here say they are rude. This is not the case. You have to keep in mind they are screening you, not interviewing you. So as you talk they are typing everything you say and trying to keep up with you. They're not making judgments on you other than whether they think you meet the needs for an interview by the end of the call. If you do they will go ahead and ask to schedule you for an interview over the phone or by email, or they may contact you after a day or so to schedule one.
If scheduled for an interview they will send you general information about the company, FAQs about the process, and a script. The script is a one page conversation between you and a mock customer, with another page of features and benefits of a fake tv package. You will need to read through this out loud a few times to practice. When they got to that part of my interview i sighed and he said everyone gets nervous about this part, so they know it's not easy for everyone. My interviewer turned around in his chair so that he wasn't looking at me and said "ring ring" and you answer starting with the script. My advice would be to put bullet points of what you want to say in your "persuasive argument" right in that section so that you don't have to switch pages. They biggest thing they look for is to see if you hesitate after being rejected. If you have even 1 sentence prepared for the beginning of your spiel then you're ten times better off. You can't prepare too much for exactly what you'll say because there are 3 options that they will give you as a customer. so you need to make notes on the paper as you talk with them in the beginning that you can refer back to (ie. price of current service) I was given sports which i know nothing about, but I said that he "would be getting 200 channels, 150 of which are in HD, compared to the 120 that he's getting now for $20 less than what he's currently paying. On top of that remember you're going to get access to all of those NFL games that you love, and extras on pay per view as an option. Not to mention that this service is 99% reliable so you never have to worry about the tv going out on you in the middle of a game! I can go ahead and set that up for you immediately, waving that installation fee. (then go right into the final red sentence) I have times in mornings and afternoon, etc etc." so you want to customize it to what they've said, and can even dig deeper into their interests than what i did. they do this call at the end of asking you a few questions. those questions are typical: who is your favorite boss you've had and why? what would that person say are your best qualities? what would they say you need to work on? why do you have an interest in red ventures? when is a time you were faced with a challenge (sales) and how did you over come it? Do you have experience meeting sales goals and how do you do that? whats a time you did something you shouldn't have (or that backfired on you or something i can't remember)? if you've ever worked with guests, sold products, sold credit cards, had to convince someone of something, you should have examples for all of those. just think of job memories before had that you can apply in different ways.
After that they show you around the main building- These people are typically really good at sales and they've moved up. so it's not a fair showing of what your work space will look like but it definitely gives you a feel for what the company values and how employees interact with each other. Then you watch a 20 minute video about a sales call so you can see one first hand. this one is insurance and a bit trickier than what they usually start people in so i didn't take it as omg that looks difficult. and the video is funny too.
They tell you the process will take 1-2 days to get back to you because the recruiters meet to talk everyone over. i was emailed a few hours later telling me they wanted to move forward, sent me links to fill out application info for a background check, called me the next day with an offer.
So i know i just wrote a book, but i wanted this to be helpful because i was really nervous and I felt like the other posts on here didn't give me the information that I wanted. Good luck everyone!
