      Outside Sales Representative Interview

      27 Mar 2019
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at United Rentals in Mar 2019

      Interview

      About a week after applying online I got an email from a recruiter asking me to reach out to him for a phone interview. I thought this was odd since in my experience corporate recruiters need to be ultra organized and keep to a specific schedule. I called and caught a voicemail, which it was fine I understand being busy. BUT he never reached out to me or responded to the voicemail or email I sent over trying to schedule a time. This is where I started to sense the unprofessionalism. When I called the next day first thing in the morning it seemed like he was uninterested about even being at his desk. It took 5-7 minutes just to pull up my profile and he resisted any kind of small talk to make it less awkward. The questions where standard questions but they were delivered in a way that are confusing. To add to that, when I asked him to repeat the question he huffed and puffed then started to reword the question in a condescending tone. Honestly, I don’t know why anyone would continue the process after talking with him. Due to his attitude I pretty much ended the conversation and wrote off any want to work for this company. Sure everyone has a bad day but you have to remember the person is also interviewing you/your company as well.

      Outside Sales Representative Interview

      Neutral experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I interviewed at United Rentals

      Interview

      Simple application process. A phone iinterview was scheduled for a few days later. Interview was simple and pretty much standard. When asked why I wanted back in sales I replied to increase market share and profits for the branch. I was then asked about my background. When the regional sales manager who was interviewing me found out I had been a regional manager before he asked how much I had increased business for the region in that position. When I replied 56% his tone changed. Even more when he was talking about his region which is a strong region and the lack of double digit growth from year to year. Finally the call ended and I was basically ghosted. No follow up till I pressed the matter. Then the standard "We decided to take a different path" was all I recieved. I even asked for feedback like I do on every bid to see what might have went wrong. Crickets.

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at United Rentals (Jessup, MD) in Nov 2025

      Interview

      Phone interview. Basic rundown of job duties and responsibilities. Not too many questions about yourself, I’m assuming they save that for later in the interview process. Overall one of the easier phone interviews.

      2 interviews so far with the company. I was very impressed with the knowledge and professionalism of those interviewing.
