When initially contacted I was told I was coming in for an interview, not a screening process. The initial phone contact was the screening process according to the caller on the phone. But once I walked into the "interview" room I was informed that "This is just a screening process and we're cherry picking a couple of candidates to come back for the actual interview" Apparently it's a 3 step process where the actual interview is 2 hours long. Side note: I've learned if any company is doing anything extra (2 hour lunch when you haven't even been hired) it's because they are trying to build relationship with you because they have nothing more to offer you and you have every right to walk away from them, initially. Ok. Once I arrived for my scheduled "interview" there were several other people there also waiting at the same time. After this experience it became obvious they use several tactics to get as many people to come in as possible so they can "Cherry pick" through them. My interviewer did not allow me to ask any questions at all. It was very obvious his mind was made up before I even left the room. I'm educated with over 8 years of experience as a director so I felt he knew I would not settle for standing at Wal-Mart haggling customers to sign up for Direct TV. Be crystal clear about what you are doing so people won't waste their time and gas for something they are not interested in to begin with. I was told there were management opportunities available. This may be true but not in this setting where you are mislead from the beginning.

The entire process start with a call from "Human Resources." They make an appointment and tell you a little bit about the company and the position. The whole interviewing process spans into three different interviews. The first interview is with the CEO of the company, this is a small company after all, and is mostly disccusing the position and how you could fit in into the company. The second interview is with two manager and consist of a lunch and a field trip with a demonstration of the job. The last interview is training.
