I met with 2 older women who asked me if I brought my cell phone & what kind I had. One wanted me to convince the other to switch her iPhone for a another brand. After their childish games, I had to write an essay on why I wanted this job. Then they wanted me to drive 3 hours to meet their Regional Director for a second interview.

This process started out positive, but quickly went downhill. I had an initial telephone interview with a recruiter. Rather than schedule a phone interview, the screener asked if I could do the interview during the initial phone call. I was shopping at the time. I found a quiet place to talk and answered her questions. That was followed by an online assessment that I had to take when I got home. Then I was scheduled for an in-person interview at the AAA office in Costa Mesa. This is where things got interesting. The first interview was with two employees who spent the bulk of the time sharing mostly negative information about the job and the culture of the company. They left for a few minutes and then came back with another person (a supervisor) to continue with the interview. This woman continued to tell me how stressful the job would be. She also explained the compensation process, making it clear that I would never get a raise, and that I would not receive any commissions for at least the first six months, and then I would not be an actual agent for about two years. I had already been an independent travel agent for three years. So after all of this, they told me I would hear back in the next few days regarding the "next step". It's been over three months, and I haven't heard anything from these professionals. Lol!
