I applied online. The process took 6 months. I interviewed at Sysco (Houston, TX) in June 2013
Interview
Phone interview with scripted questions. Most of which were general questions about situations you've been in that required you to make effective decisions. After being recommended from that, was interviewed by panel. Then was made official offer and spent time with HR reps

Question 1
Describe a time you had to make a difficult decision
It went well. Nice people. They were interested in my interest in food sales and my desire to work hard. I met with three different people. They seem to want to build a strong team.
The interview process was very long and fairly disorganized. First, there is a phone interview, then I was invited to a hotel for in-person interviews. After a few weeks, I was asked to come to the ofiices for another interview.
I was interviewed by 3 different people in a round robin process. Each interview was private and then I would move on the next person for the interview. All interviewers were polite and nice.
