Me postulé a través de una recomendación de un empleado. El proceso tomó 3 semanas. Acudí a una entrevista en Altria
Entrevista
I got connected with Altria by a friend I knew and after sending my resume and cover letter in I had a phone screen interview scheduled within 3 weeks or so.
The interview lasted about 40 minutes. We went through my background and then on to some questions. First question I was asked was how did I creatively solve a problem. Next question was what is the most complicated data set I've ever dealt with. And then I was given a situational question of what would I do if I told an account that there was a promotion available that would allow me and the customer to both reach our quarterly quotas. But I checked into it later and realized the promotion no longer existed. What do I do with pressure from my boss to reach my quota?
I found the question confusing as I don't know exactly how their company operates in situations like this or how many alternate promotions may be available. I answered that I would be honest with my customer even if it meant my numbers wouldn't reach my quota. I then said I would work to find another promotional option that could allow us to both reach our quotas.

3 interview rounds - 1 with recruiter, 1 virtual, and 1 virtual panel interview. Took a few months to get an offer. Lots of periods of silence and some people told me it took 6 months or so for the whole process

How would you pitch your sales story to this specific client?
First step was to answer screening questions and submit a resume. Second step was a pre recorded interview where you had to record yourself answering several questions and respond in writing about salary expectations.
3 steps - Behavioral, case study, and shadowing a manager. Very casual interview process. Focus on the STAR method and it'll be fine. For the case study you have to sell in a product by influencing the prospect with data and insights they provide
