Interview
It was quick and didn't feel personal at all. You sit in a waiting room with a few other people and get called in one by one. The offices were clearly not personalized, making it look almost temporary or like a pop-up. The people are all very nice and seem to be happy with their roles, but there's very little transparency.

Interview
I applied online, submitting my resume through the company website. Was called within 24 hours with a professional phone interview. For the in person interview, it only lasted 15 minutes, which made me believe they're not taking their interview process seriously. The President didn't really allow me to ask too many questions. He made me feel extremely rushed. I wouldn't recommend this company to anyone, I found the company pretty misleading. Their website doesn't mention anything about individuals working at CostCo or Sams Club, selling products (pretty much being a sample person). Those aren't trade shows to me.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Outset Events (San Diego, CA) in July 2016
Interview
First round interview was a brief meeting with the executive manager going over basics of the company, what they do, who their clients include, etc. Brief questioning including very basic get-to-know-you type questions.
Second round was a "shadowing" of one of the event managers at one of their event/shows, followed by some interview questions and a basic break down of pay, scheduling, how to climb up in the company, etc.
Interview questions [1]
