Me postulé a través de una recomendación de un empleado. El proceso tomó 2 semanas. Acudí a una entrevista en Sysco en dic 2009
Entrevista
My initial communications with the company came from an existing employee who encouraged me to apply. After applying, I was contacted within 5-8 days via phone with a simple Q/A session. They stated the job description, job salary, requirements and expectations. I was then scheduled for the first of 2 interview sessions.
Each interview session consisted of 3, approximately 45 minutes to an hour interview with 3 different Sysco Senior Managers. Very casual in style we discussed my background and professional as well as personal goals. Almost every Senior Manager had a situational questionnaire booklet on the desk but out of the 6 total I spoke with, maybe only half actually used it.
While I was not offered the position - I was encouraged to apply again. I plan to do so as 2 of the Senior Managers I spoke with, made it a point to tell me that it took them several application attempts to land a job with Sysco. Very good experience. Looking back - I am glad I was not offered the job because now I know that they are very selective in who they hire. The other candidate just had more qualifications and experience - bottom line.

It went well. Nice people. They were interested in my interest in food sales and my desire to work hard. I met with three different people. They seem to want to build a strong team.
The interview process was very long and fairly disorganized. First, there is a phone interview, then I was invited to a hotel for in-person interviews. After a few weeks, I was asked to come to the ofiices for another interview.
I was interviewed by 3 different people in a round robin process. Each interview was private and then I would move on the next person for the interview. All interviewers were polite and nice.
