I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Expedia Group (Kailua Kona, HI) in Aug 2015
Interview
The interview process was less than seamless. It began quickly-- I received a phone call a day or two after I applied, and had a phone interview a day or two after that. From there, I had a sit-down with the sales manager at a local coffee shop, and then a week or two of waiting while they interviewed other candidates. My big problem was that after I was given the position, the company did not honor my start date. I was given a drug test at a local office here in town, and because they sent my "sample" off to some distant lab instead of processing it on island as was expected, I had my start date pushed back a week. The Human Resources Manager did not know why this happened. It seemed disorganized, and I was out a week's pay for a mistake I didn't make.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
The interview didn't feel like an interview, so I have hard time recalling specific questions the kind to which this question refers. The sales manager asked me which activities on the island I would suggest most to my guests, but this felt like a natural progression in a conversation between friends.
Was smooth process and no complaints. Only took a couple weeks to finish process because they hire in groups so have to wait until the class was available to take it
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Expedia Group (Honolulu, HI) in Oct 2012
Interview
I applied for the position and was contacted by HR within 2 weeks. However, I was told they weren't going to be hiring for about a month. They hire in groups in order to have enough for a training class. I kept in contact with HR, and about a month later I was brought in for an interview. I met with all four managers (2 at a time). Nothing too difficult. I was offered the position and began training a week later.

Question 1
It's a sales position, so i was asked questions about how I'd paint the picture, upsell, etc.
