      Sales Interview

      19 Mar 2015
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Neutral experience
      Average interview

      Application

      The process took 3 months. I interviewed at CNN

      Interview

      Initial follow up was good but eventually I discovered the sales position isn't like any sales job I've ever had - no commissions - only an annual bonus tied primarily to the company's (not the individual's) performance. Zero incentive to sell.

      Question 1

      Are you going to be comfortable taking a pay cut to come here?

      Sales Interview

      12 Nov 2010
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Atlanta, GA
      No offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at CNN (Atlanta, GA) in May 2009

      Interview

      Review lasted three days and involved being interviewed by 5 people, individually and then collectively. Interviewers were: department head, recruiter, marketing rep, director of contracts, vice president of sales. The process was fairly painless. I had to prepare a presentation which was shared with the group. I answered some stock questions and talked indepth about how to use new technology to advance the department.
