I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Big Open Door Marketing (Baltimore, MD) in Apr 2014
Interview
From the job listing to what you actually interview for is a huge difference. While you may be thinking you are interviewing for a marketing position that values degrees in communications or English, you are actually interviewing for a position as a "samples" person in Costco.

Question 1
What made you want to pursue a career in marketing?
I applied through university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Big Open Door Marketing (Baltimore, MD) in Apr 2015
Interview
They advertise this job as one where you will get real marketing experience at an established firm with big clients. When you get there, it's a tiny 2 room office with 2 employees. The job is essentially standing in a costco trying to sell as seen on TV products on commission. They gave me the impression of extremely high turnover. There were typical interview questions and nothing too interesting.

Question 1
Have you had previous marketing and sales experience?
I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Big Open Door Marketing (Lutherville Timonium, MD) in Apr 2015
Interview
The interview was rushed, sloppy, and almost a "don't ask don't tell" sort of situation. The owner did not even introduce herself. After asking her a few questions about what exactly the job was, she unveiled that you would be working as a product demonstrator at any selected costco.
