phone interview (why you want sales), in person interview (meet management and mock pitch a product), final phone interview (mock pitch weddingwire). they may have done away with the mock pitch of WeddingWire, give you two weeks of extensive training following offer- you feel VERY prepared to do your job

I applied online and the next day got an email about a phone interview. The screening was quick and easy. I then scheduled a time for the in-house interview and tour and I flew to DC. I prepared for this interview like crazy because of the reviews on Glassdoor - I was honestly terrified, it sounded like an awful experience for so many. So I memorized every answer to the most horrific questions I could find and practiced the dumbest mock pitches like selling a pen or ice. On interview day I showed up to the Weddingwire floor and literally no one paid attention to me... apparently they are renovating so they currently don't have a front desk. I walked around for a solid 5 minutes before a UPS guy showed up and someone actually acknowledged him, so then I was directed to the recruiter. Awkward start. The tour was quick and easy, the "overview" of the position was literally so fast I barely remember what was even said. Then was the interview - like I said I was terrified, but honestly it wasn't bad at all. No major curveball questions. My interviewers both seemed genuinely interested in me and I even had a guy (which, there are only a few, so I was worried he was the "mean one.") I did have to do an on the spot sales thing which I handled pretty well, definitely made a few mistakes. My mouth got super dry so definitely take a bottle of water with you! After that I shadowed a rep for about 40 minutes. She basically got a lot of answering machines, I never heard an actual pitch. I was feeling super #blessed that I didn't have to do a phone pitch afterwards - not sure if that was a sign that I wasn't getting hired or that we just used up all the time - because we did. A few days later I had one more phone interview. This is where my interview experience went very south. The sales manager who called me probably ruined my whole opinion of WeddingWire. She called me about 15 minutes behind the scheduled time and the entire phone call it was so obvious that she was uninterested. She sounded like she wasn't paying attention to me at all, and scrambling to come up with answers to my questions like she didn't know what I was talking about, and then to finish she rushed me off the phone. Maybe she had something going on, but it really aggravated me and made me almost not want the job. But still, I thought for sure I would get an offer. I was definitely qualified and had a really good interview, not sure what the problem was. I got an email a few days later saying there were "too many candidates" which I think is interesting because it seems like WeddingWire is ALWAYS hiring for sales associates. It's fine though, from what I read here on Glassdoor I probably definitely wouldn't have thrived there. And I never write reviews, but wanted y'all to not get freaked out about the interview like I did because it really wasn't that bad.
