I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at DHL Express (Toronto, ON) in July 2021
Interview
The job described in the listing and the interview are different! Read this and know what you are walking into:
- The listing does not require sales experience, and it says on it that this is the 'first step to your sales journey' however you are expected to talk about your sales experience in the interview. If you have a different background other than sales, every comment they make will be about how your lack of sales experience makes you unqualified for the role.
- They also do not tell you what the training is in the job listing, so let me. Apparently, you will be a telesales person for 6 months, and you are expected to call 100 prospective clients a day. "You won't be managing accounts any time soon." None of this is in the job listing, they explain it in the interview, so you don't know what you are walking into.
- They also don't hire right away, but you are being shortlisted. I think it would have been ethical if they told me that before, so I wouldn't have applied to it. Don't they think the applicants would want to know?
Not to mention the date of the interview was scheduled differently on Zoom than what it said on the e-mail. I did not think the experience was professional at all.

Interview
Very easy, the job requires not much experience and the interview process is very basic. Simply talk about your experience and really show personality. They hire more on personality then results

Question 1
What are your key successes and fails, how did you manage the failures
Interview is a panel. Great experience and they give great responses on any questions you have. As long as you are prepared just like any interview, you will be okay.
I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at DHL Express (Phoenix, AZ) in June 2022
Interview
Amazing!! Very straight forward and inviting. The panel interview can be a little intimidating but overall a great and serious interview process. The job shaw Dow before the panel interview allows you to truly see it you would like the position.
