I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Ricoh in June 2011
Interview
Easy if you are good looking. If you are prepared and feel and sound confident you will get it. Be as arrogant as possible they like that. If you describe that you want to work 80 hours per week, pound the pavement, not take no for an answer you will get a job. Be prepared to make little or no money because the profit margins in this industry are low. If you like to drink alot take the job because you will need to.
nothing I can recall. the process was as you would expect and you can see from the other reviews. There are questions and there are answers then a second interview if necessary.
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Ricoh (Glasgow, Scotland)
Interview
Invited for initial in-person interview after submitting CV and Cover letter, for them to basically tell me in person that from my CV they didn't think I had enough experience. Timewasters.
Interview questions [2]
Question 1
Questions were not clear, but basically was asked if I know the Scottish Market. I proceeded to explain that I had a few scottish clients in my previous sales role, but they didn't really give me an opportunity to speak. Their Head of Sales for UK and Head of Sales for Scotland don't understand the 80/20 rule and just like the sound of their own voice.
Very smooth. 2 rounds of interviews. One was a phone interview. After the phone interview, you the manager. The manager asked basic questions around your experience. Additionally, he'll walk you through what typical day looks like.
