I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Insight Global (Boston, MA) in Sep 2015
Interview
I was contacted by phone by a recruiter pretty quickly after submitting my application. Over the phone I was asked a few questions like "What do you know about Insight Global?" and "Why sales?". At the end of that conversation I scheduled an in person interview. During that interview, I met with one of the Sales Managers and an Account Manager. The interview was pretty casual and relaxed. They mostly wanted to get to know you as a person and see if you were charismatic, outgoing, passionate, energetic, etc.... I was told by my recruiter ahead of time that the biggest thing they are looking for is likability. They also look for people who are driven and self-motivated. After two ~30 min conversations I was told by the Sales Director that I would be setting up a final round interview (either lunch or drinks) with the other Sales Director. Once that first interview was over I contacted my recruiter to go over my feedback. I then set up a final round interview.
Two rounds of interviews to see whether or not you’re a good fit - translation if they can boss you around and make you do things beyond the job description
3 round interview process. 2 remote and the last one was onsite at the ATL HQ. They were friendly, I had a good time, but ultimately didn’t get the job

I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Insight Global (Denver, CO) in Mar 2026
Interview
Started with an initial meeting over Microsoft Teams; Recruiter interviewed me twice before offering an in person interview. The in person interview was much more interpersonal, they had me meet the team and introduced me to everyone on the floor. When the actual interview started it seemed they were scanning my personal communication skills without be prudent to my abilities to complete the job. I was invited back for a shadow/lunch session, this was another test environment of my personal communication skills. I felt this environment was supportive but felt off, I appreciated the time to interview but was told multiple times; "We believe you have the technical ability to complete the job." I was told the day after that they were moving forward with other candidates. I completed a total of six interviews for this position with arguably more effort and time spent than I would like to interview. The shadow session and lunch interview took nearly 4 hours of my time (travel, parking, interview, lunch, shadowing time). I wouldn't spend this much time in pursuit of a position I was not going to be offered. Indirectly I never was able to speak with anyone in the office I was interviewing at previous to the interviews themselves. My recruiter operated as a liaison to me and the office without direct connection with the office.
