Me postulé en persona. El proceso tomó 1 día. Acudí a una entrevista en Pearson (Pittsburgh, PA)
Entrevista
The interview process is apparently lengthy; there is also a portion where they have you go on campus and see what you can do in the field, I was contacted by Pearson about the position. I spoke with a manager over the phone in a preliminary screening; he was very nice and willing to give helpful information about the position. I met with him at a hotel for the interview and even though I asked lots of questions what Pearson actually sells is still a little vague for me to describe.

Pregunta 1
What is your outside sales experience? What are the steps you took to prepare for the interview? What are your personal goals?
The interview process at Pearson is very challenging. Many steps along the way with multiple interviews and presentations. Apparently, there is a high turnover rate, and they are trying to avoid this through a difficult interview process.

Entrevista
I was called by the hiring manager about the open position. First off, it took three calls for him to have ample time to speak with me. When I showed up for the interview the next day, the interviewing manager was 20 minutes late. This confirmed what I suspected: he was very unorganized. I have been in publishing for almost 10 years and I would not pursue a position with Pearson after this experience.
