I applied through an employee referral. The process took 8 weeks. I interviewed at Ramsey Solutions (Brentwood, TN)
Interview
The interview process is long, and intense but over all very friendly and not at all intimidating.
I had two phone interviews, one with HR and then one with the hiring manager before being brought into the office. The interview with HR really explained the interview process as well as asked a few screening questions. So while the entire process was long, nothing came as a surprise.
Then I had 3 separate in person interviews over about a 4 week time span. After than I came in and interviewed with 5 or 6 people in one day. Following that, they did a spousal interview which involved my spouse and i going out to lunch with the team leader and their spouse.
This group is very carful when they hire and the results are great in the work place but it is hard while you are interviewing especially if you are looking to make a change quickly.
There is a personality test that you take, but its simple and online so you can take it at home. It shouldn't take more than15 or 20 minutes.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Because there were so many interviews there where more questions than I remember. Here are a few: Tell us your 'Dave Story" and a little bit about your familiarity with the brand.
What is something that you love about your current role, the one thing that when you get to do you run home and tell someone?
How do you handle conflict in the workplace? Tell us about your experience working in teams and handling tense situations.
I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Ramsey Solutions in July 2024
Interview
Initial phone screen was very quick. Researched company prior to responding to their request to speak. Did not want to believe the negative comments I had read but unfortunately they were true. Would not call them a cult per say, but discrimination is definitely present regardless if based on age, race, religion, etc.

Question 1
Standard marketing questions, but when reversed and asked about company culture, the interviewer went into full defense denial-mode and proceeded to send an email instantaneously stating thank you but no thank you.
Incredibly mysoginistic and Inappropriate. Was asked too many inappropriate questions. Had to bail after being told I could never have a credit card and needed to ensure my husband signed off on me having a job.
I applied online. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Ramsey Solutions
Interview
Not sure how they haven't gotten in trouble for discrimination yet? While the process seemed very professional, I was shocked when we got to the "value" discussion. They shared their values which have religious roots -- okay fine. But to then ask questions about not having sex before marriage (which is apparently one of their values?) and ending the conversation after I did not want to disclose that information, stating I am not a good fit... Seems discriminatory to me? And a bit cult-y. Super specific workplace culture/values. Don't waste your time interviewing if you're not religious, and don't agree with everything Dave says. There doesn't seem to be much diversity of thought allowed at this company...
