Outside Sales at Allied Building Products

Accepted Offer – Reviewed May 14, 2013

Interview Details It was actually a pretty simple process, the only thing that took forever was the background check, it seems like Allied digs down deep to try and find anything at all in your past in order to disqualify you. The interview with the branch manager was very funny due to the fact that I listened more than I spoke during the interview.

Interview Question – actually nothing difficult or unexpected, its the usual questions about past employment.   Answer Question

Negotiation Details – They are unwilling to negotiate at all.

Outside Sales at Allied Building Products

Accepted Offer – Interviewed in Jun 2009 – Reviewed Oct 31, 2011

Interview Details I interviewed with the VP of Sales and the owner of the company. They both are excellent sales people, but they lack much in training. The entire company lacks an adequate training program. They rely on the new employee to get training from their customers...that doesn't make a lot of sense, right? Even on the job training with other sales people didn't work because they treat you like you're supposed to know as much as them already.

Interview Question – How would you attack the region in your cold calls?   View Answer
