I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at TriNet (Irvine, CA) in Jan 2018
Interview
Typical sales interview process? Nope. Do you like to be stringed along? Do you like having to do an obscene amount of interviews?
In total, I had 7 Interviews with 1 more lined up, for a total of 8!
Here was my progression: Recruiter 30 min call, Recruiter 1 hr call, Sales Director 45 min call, Sales Executive 1 hr meeting, Sales Manager (different territory) 1 hr meeting, Territory Sales Manager 1hr, Sales VP and Director 1 hr. The last interview would have been with another Sales Manager on the other side of the country.
So after 7 interviews, it was decided that my: "previous sales experience selling SaaS technology was not applicable."
It took them 7 interviews to decide that. Think of how valuable your time is before applying.
