      Sales Consultant Interview

      Nov 21, 2017
      Anonymous employee
      East Syracuse, NY
      Accepted offer
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through other source. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Essilor

      Interview

      Patience is key. The process for this size of a company is very long. I am going to guess that the reason is due to the amount of applicants. There are a lot of applicants now due to industry changes. A new hire will have to endure a time period of training before getting into the field. Training can be tedious, but important to success. Show tolerance to this in an interview.

      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Essilor (East Syracuse, NY)

      Interview

      Long but worth it. Thorough interview process. If you are serious about joining the Essilor group they do their proper vetting and it does take awhile to go through their candidates but absolutely worth it in the end.

      Negative experience

      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Essilor in Mar 2017

      Interview

      I attended an event in Detroit , Sales Network. I was able to meet with a manager who referred me to apply on the company website. Then, I was referred to the District Manager for a phone screen. Unfortunately I was told that I did not have experience for the sales position, they required at least 6 months to 1 year of sales experience.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      1. What is the difference between sales and marketing? 2. Tell me about a difficult situation that you've been in and how you handled it?

      Positive experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied in-person. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Essilor

      Interview

      Telephone contact, face to face interview, telephone contact, offer letter via email and phone confirmation. Actually had two sales managers that knew how to speak and interview sales reps. their presentation was very professional, and questions were open ended was asked how I worked with current customers, did not ask me for customer lists or expected me to go after current customers. The interview went very well with the two that interviewed me, unfortunately because they were messed over nine months later, they were not in my chain for long.
