This was seriously the weirdest interviewing experience I have EVER undergone. I submitted my resume online, and received a call the next day from the "VP of Sales". Well, actually, that person was also the CEO, CIO and pretty much anything else he deems himself--but I didn't know that at the time.
This "interview" took place over the phone at about 9PM on a Sunday night, due to the interviewer being located in Asia. It consisted largely of him repeating stuff that's on the website and trying to sell me on the company. I don't recall him asking me even the first question. That already had my weirdo-radar tingling, and then he blows me out of the water with this golden nugget: the first 90 days, sales people are paid $xxx a day. Then the next 90 days is paid at half that amount, the assumption being that you'd have a pipeline by then.
The "pay per day" business really threw me for a loop. What is this, McDonald's? He went on to explain that they have "online training" which I would be expected to complete, and that it should take 20 or so hours to master the material, then I'd have to pass a test at the end. I dutifully took down the login information, if nothing else, because I was curious. When I looked at this "training", I had to laugh. It was stuff ANY first year inside sales person would know cold, and frankly I found it a little insulting. I very nearly took the test that same night he called me (which by the way was a Sunday, well after business hours) just to make a point, but I figured that was rude.
The second I got off the phone, I came here to Glassdoor and got an earful. All the truthful comments on this site really clarified and confirmed the weird vibes I had gotten, and helped me decide quite promptly that this place wasn't for me.
