Had a phone interview, which went very well. Was told on the phone I would be a good fit and would be hearing back soon to schedule a face to face interview. I sent a follow up email and never heard back from anyone. If you say you are going to do something, do it!
I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Beacon Building Products (Raleigh, NC) in Aug 2024
Interview
Applied for the Outside Sales role and received an email a couple of days later saying they wanted to schedule a phone interview with me. When the time came for them to call me I never received a call. I emailed the lady who was supposed to call and she never emailed me back. I also messaged her on LinkedIn and no response there either. Very unprofessional.

Interview
Did a phone interview with recruiter first. Passed that to get a face to face interview at one of the stores. Met with Regional and 2 store managers for the interview. They had been working together for 30 years. They mentioned that they were women and/or black during the interview as if to imply I may not be comfortable with that with that which was odd. They did not ask many questions and I feel as if I was running the interview. Nice folks but very comfortable with their positions and may have been a little intimidated that I knew my stuff so well.

Question 1
The only relevant sales question they asked was how do I handle rejection since they wanted a "hunter".
