I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Steelcase in Jan 2014
Interview
Received an email from their outside recruiter that based on my credentials, they felt I would be a good fit for this company. Contacted the recruiter to set up preliminary phone interview.
Interviewer showed no energy. She was in fact late for our appointment. Asked the normal run of robotic questions.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
The no-no question was asked. What year did you graduate college?
The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Steelcase in Mar 2012
Interview
Panel interview with 3 managers including Sales Mgr, Regional Sales Mgr, and HR.
Asked scripted questions about various sales scenarios looking for experience and behavioral responses.
Interview was through a recruiting company. Interviewed with two recruiters and the next step was the panel interview. The total process took about 3 weeks. Everyone was cordial and professional. Appears to be a great company to work for.
I did not have office furniture sales experience and I understand they hired a person with industry experience.
