What is the hiring process like at Sekisui House U.S., Inc.?

Comprehensive, detailed and organized in a fashion that makes the complicated process of on-boarding, manageable for new hires.

There aren't any that I'm aware of.

The process was smooth and hassle - free, making it easy to get started. The team was welcoming and professional, providing a personable touch. All necessary training was through and well - organizes. Continuous support and guidance were provided throughout the onboarding.

Flawless Onboarding Experience ! No Cons

You can learn a lot and get some great training and then take it to another builder that values their people

There is a reason turnover is so high. Salespeople are treated like garbage. I will never forget the day they cut our pay by almost 40% and told their salespeople you are all just order takers, you make no difference in the company or sales process, and we can hire anyone off the street to do a better job than you for less money. The culture is so terrible and they couldn't care less about their people. That's why all the best sales, construction and warranty people work at other builders now. The only reason they have a decent rating on here is because they ask all new employees to leave a glowing review when they are just starting out.

The group interview process and the onboarding corporate training were both positive experiences. The company has an efficient administration/human resources department. Local managers are reachable during and after hours. If you are placed in a community that is priced correctly and gets good buyer traffic, you have the potential to succeed.

Sales Agents are moved around to various communities and days off change without notice. Soon after agents are moved, their pipeline is transferred from them and they have to build a new one. BEWARE, not all communities are equal in terms of buyer traffic and the amount of product available to sell! Agents are encouraged and often must work on their days off to meet quotas by attending "Realtor Outreach" events, taking appointments to "cross-sell" other communities, and attending mandatory meetings. Agents are held to metrics that are beyond their control. Be prepared for buyers to feel untrusting when they find out current pricing is nowhere close to what the company advertises. They overhire and don't give trainees and current sales agents an equal opportunity to succeed.
