Application
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at SHI International (Austin, TX) in May 2017
Interview
This has changed drastically since I have been hired, so I cannot provide an update on newer hiring scenarios. All I know is that if you are not passionate about sales - even in the slightest - you will not be hired on. Better to work as a team than an individual.
Interview is a 3 step process. The first step is a phone interview with standard background questions. The second interview is a video interview with the recruiter. The 3rd step is a sales pitch over a grocery item.
Phone screen. Followed by Skype interview which was set a ridiculous two weeks ahead but you can push it forward if you want to get the process done faster. Skype interview is over your background and "why sales" type of questions. If you do that well, next is a presentation. They give you instructions and tell you to pitch and sale them your favorite grocery item on video and upload it. If you do a good job on this, offer comes quickly. Overall pretty laid back if youre a confident, outgoing person.

Interview
The process took place online, where the recruiter asked a variety of questions and I answered. It was very relaxed and the SHI employee was warm and welcoming. The process was easy and they made it simple.
