I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Renewal by Andersen (Chicago, IL) in Feb 2013
Interview
Initial phone interview by recruiter followed by interview with several managers (face to face). First manager interview was on-on-one, them a group or panel type interview was set. (All in the same day)Personality exam needed to be taken as well as online test to evaluate math, and spread sheet familiarity. Then drug screen and offer letter.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
How do I typically deal with customers giving me "Objections" to buying.
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Renewal by Andersen (Mississauga, ON) in May 2025
Interview
A phone interview was done with HR. It was quick, less than 10 minutes, but addressed the most relevant elements of the job.
A second interview was done in person with the sales manager.
I never received a call back after the interview or a follow up of any kind. I reached out a couple times and never heard anything back. I even sent a follow up email after the interview.

Question 1
Describe a difficult sale you had and how you handled it.
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Renewal by Andersen (Des Plaines, IL) in Feb 2025
Interview
This was probably the worst interviewing process I’ve ever had. I spoke to 5 different people for a total of 4 interviews. The last interview was with two people, and it felt more of a drill questionnaire than an actual interview. I didn’t get the next steps until a week later saying that I didn’t get the job via email.
Complete waste of a person’s time interviewing with so many people for a rejection email I would’ve preferred that one of the three recruiters that I did speak to reject me and decide that I wasn’t a fit before i had to drive to Des Plaines and have an interview with two drill sergeants.
Completely unprofessional and a waste of time for a 100% commission job.
