Interview
I actually don't know if I'll be getting an offer, although I can assume not. The beginning of the process was relatively quick & easy. Apply, contacted by HR to set up a virtual screening interview with the HR Rep. The same day as the screening interview, received an email with an invitation to a virtual interview with the hiring manager for the following week. Eight days later received an invitation to the panel interview round (two 1-hour interviews with 2 regional managers on each call). Was told I was a finalist and given a timeline for the ideal start date and on-board/training. Sent a follow-up/thank you email the next morning, received a response within an hour that they'd be in touch. Eight days later (on a Tuesday) I get a phone call from HR saying they're swamped and hiring for other positions and wrapping up interviews & other projects, and I'd get information on final decisions in the next few days; thinking that possibly meant end of week. It didn't. We're approaching two weeks with no additional info. I messaged the hiring manager on day 8 asking for any updates or if they needed any supplemental info from me (a basic "did you forget about me" message). Three days later and no response. My status on their career page hasn't changed, but the posting has been removed. Apparently, after doing some research, they've got a bit of a reputation for ghosting candidates.

Initial interview was with the hiring manager. Additional interview with another district sales manager outside of territory for additional vetting. All very normal and expected interview questions. Lots of “tell us about a time when” questions so come prepared with examples.

Question 1
What did you do that allowed you to achieve top 5 territory in your previous sales role? Answer was challenged with wouldn't you say all sales reps do that? What is unique about you that allowed you to achieve those results?
