J'ai postulé via la recommandation d'un employé. J'ai passé un entretien chez Grainger (Los Angeles, CA) en août 2012
Entretien
Met with 2 District Sales Managers, asked me about my sales achievements in previous roles. They required measurable, answers. Like $ growth in a specific time frame and the ranking that placed me in among my colleagues. Also if I had made goal in my previous roles or what % to goal I had achieved. I helped them understand the size of my previous employers and where the companies place in their industries.

Entretien
Initial interview was easy, just asked about what you know about the company and STAR based. Although was told I would be interviewing in the next round and they really put that into my head only to get a one sentence email at 1am saying they went a different direction. Extremely misleading.

Entretien
They asked STAR questions and very template questions just to fill in the pages per the manager. Although it could change since I went through this 6 years ago. They are stock driven, so learn a little about their market price and how they play in the industry.

Entretien
They do interviews in the typical STAR format. Very tiring as they ask you a ton of questions. If you can handle that kind of thing you'll be fine but the average interview is like 40 minutes of straight questions.
