I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Ideal Image (Tampa, FL) in Jan 2012
Interview
I had a phone interview and was asked to come in for a one on one. The interview went very well and I was asked to speak to her director that day. This was the next step in the processes. Her director was busy and was told that I would get a follow up call the following week to go in to talk with her. I did not get the call back. Just think if there potential clients never call back!
The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Ideal Image (Tampa, FL) in May 2011
Interview
Initial interview was over the phone. I then went in to meet with a recruiter face-to face. After that, I met with the individual I would directly be reporting to and interviewed with her. I was then told I needed to meet with another member of the team who screened all sales representatives before an offer was made. The recruiter gave me several tips regarding the final interview. I showed up for the final interview and thought things went really well. I was told I would hear back within a few days regarding the hiring decision. I sent individual thank you emails and cards after each interview. I was the one who had to follow up several times only to find out an offer was not going to be extended to me. When I asked for feedback regarding how they perceived me during the interview process and if there was any specific reason(s) a job offer was not extended to me, I received very vague, generic answers. I just applied (in October, 2011) for another sales position with Ideal Image and a recruiter called me the next day. Once again, I was told I would hear back from the recruiter regarding setting up an interview and to date, I have not received a call back. The process is frustrating and disappointing to say they least, specifically for a seasoned sales representative like myself.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Strong, short sales process- often times have to drive customers to make a decision for an expensive treatment on first visit. Make them "fear the loss" of a promotion- i.e. must close the deal even if good qualifying has not occurred.
The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Ideal Image in Feb 2011
Interview
First a recruiter contacted me to conduct an initial phone interview. From there a second phone interview was conducted that helped prep me for my first one on one interview with a regional director. A phone interview was conducted with the regional director, which led to an interview with the regional director in person (he flew in). A sales proposal was recommended to be brought to that interview. The next process was to interview with the national director. I interviewed with the national director and was told they would be in touch with me. I continued to follow up with the recruiter every other week for about a month and then stopped following up and never heard back.
