The company's hiring process is very similar to their sales techniques. Make grandiose claims, promises they can't keep, try to convince you they are doing good for the planet. It doesn't take long to realize that the only way to hit the incentives numbers they promise you is to work the maximum hours, and pressure your customers into taking sales visits they don't want and/or don't need. This entire company is a sales and marketing show, they have no interest in, or knowledge of, the energy efficiency or home improvement industry. As soon as they make a sale, they are on to the next one, and the customer is given little guidance in navigating the incentive process, the financing options, or how to operate their new system. Similarly, with regard to their employees, they employ a sink or swim strategy, constantly shift the targets and how you are incentivized/compensated, and when you burn out they tell you that "maybe this job isn't the best fit for you..."

Interview was pretty straight forward. Simple math test in the beginning, going over calculating areas and energy produced. Next was a computer literacy test which I found pretty pointless but I guess it was to see if you can follow directions in a time constraint. The in person interview was with one of the Home Energy Advisor field managers and was pretty straight forward, however I felt like it was rushed and the manager was not really into it. Personally it did not seem like the job I was really into since it focused heavily on sales and corresponding commissions.
