Echo Global Logistics National Account Manager/Inside Sales Interview (student candidate)

Posted Dec 16, 2012 1 of 1 people found this helpful

Accepted Offer – Interviewed in Chicago, IL (US) May 2012 – Reviewed Dec 16, 2012

Interview Details Phone interview of about 10-15 minutes. Then in person interview with the same recruiter. That day also includes about 30 minutes of job shadowing and an interview with a manager. Then you get an offer letter to begin the training program. There is no drug test but there is a background check.

Interview Question – The manager asked, "why should I hire you? Why should I take that risk?" Other than that it was pretty much straightforward interviewing. No real curve balls but it does depend on who you interview with. It is a large company so it could be different.   View Answer

Negotiation Details – There is no negotiation phase. You get an offer for 35,000 base plus commission. The problem is that you have to hit a 16k book before you can get commission. That takes about 2-3 years. Also, once you get the commission you lose the base salary.

Other Details - I applied through campus recruiting and the process took 4+ weeks.
