The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at TrendSource (La Mesa, CA) in Jun 2019
Interview
Do not even waste your time with this disorganized company. Applied online then had a phone interview. Moved on to first in person interview and short test on Microsoft word,PowerPoint, excel, and outlook. Tests were easy and that interview went well, basic questions from two people in the department.
Final in person interview was waste of time and made me see the disorganization that this sinking ship of a firm is. I came in for the interview and the secretary tried to give the Microsoft test I already took during the previous interview. When I told her I already took it she seemed confused and didn’t believe me... this was getting off to an interesting start. Two women interviewed me this time, one did not even work on the west coast and was just in visiting, so she thought it would be “fun” to sit in on the interview... ok whatever, kinda strange but I’ll go with it. She immediately said I looked nervous because I was sitting up straight and suggested for me to slouch or I was going to “blow this amazing opportunity”. She put a bad taste in my mouth and made the entire interview super awkward. They shortly sent me a rejection email, to which now I am so thankful for. Not being hired here was a blessing in disguise!
One last thing, they are pretty fake seeming and briefly mentioned how awesome of a company they are because they play corn hole in office... although the times I was in the office the vibes were cold and dead while the employees looked suicidal.

I applied online. I interviewed at TrendSource (San Diego, CA)
Interview
I was contacted via email to come in for an exam. I took it in front of one of the employees and they directed me on what to do. For example, I was told to write an email to someone (I was allowed to write anything), and I was also told to show how to compose an email through outlook, and show that I know how to do basic functions on microsoft word. The "exam" was to show my knowledge with different platforms. I was then called in for a second interview and I met with two employees. I then had a third interview and I met with the head of Onsite Inspections, as well as a manager. I think I had the first two interviews in the same week, and then the other one the following week. They were very quick with the entire process and they were ready to hire ASAP. I think I had my 3rd interview on a Monday, took my drug test on Tuesday, and then I started on Thursday.
