I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Mandella Agencies (Birmingham, AL) in May 2016
Interview
They act like your gold til you mess up. No pay while training. Interviewer acted very strange almost like buying a car, had over 20 people there all at the same time. Very unorganized had to move from office to office.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Mandella Agencies (Birmingham, AL) in June 2016
Interview
They overlapped scheduling with 15 minute windows, so it was a little awkward waiting with several people at the same time for the same position. They brought me in individually at first to get some background info and talk about the position. Then they put us all in the conference room for a powerpoint presentation on the company and to ask questions.

Interview
At first I was a bit put off because I wasn't the only person in the office for an interview. However, I decided to stick around out of curiosity. The first girl I talked to was nice. She didn't ask very hard questions, but seemed to just be getting a feel for my personality. I was invited to the next step in which I was able to learn about the position and the company. I noticed that some of the others I had seen in the waiting room were not brought into the same room as me, and I began to understand that each part of the interview was a screening process. It was hard for me to wait until that point to have all my questions answered, but after the second part of the interview I felt very informed and much more at ease. After I was finally able to have a personal meeting with the owner and the conversation became much more serious and involved. Now that I'm a part of the team, I understand how their hiring process works and it makes sense. It's a unique sales position, so a lot of people apply. Although they take the time to talk to a lot of people, very few of those who are interviewed are actually offered a position.
