      Sales Trainee Interview

      3 Apr 2020
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Newport News, VA
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through university. The process took 5 months. I interviewed at Ferguson (Newport News, VA) in Mar 2020

      Interview

      I really enjoyed the interview process and thought it went well. I was first asked where in the U.S. that I'd like to work during a text interview, then it moved onto a phone interview. I was then eventually asked to go to a recruiting event in Newport News, VA to get to know the company culture. I have no complaints except for that the interview process was extremely long. I applied for the position in October, heard back for my first phone interview in November and then went to the final recruiting event in March to see if I had gotten the position. After waiting since October to find out if I got the position, I found out that after all of my effort and time waiting, I did not get the position. Both the recruiters were excellent and some of the nicest people I have ever met, but the best advice I would give would be to make the interview process a little shorter as I felt strung along, especially after not getting the position. This was my dream job and I put time and effort into 5 months only to find out I hadn't gotten the job, while I knew someone who also went who had just found out about the position a week ago and got the job. I'm not saying these people weren't deserving of the job, but I felt the handling of the timing of my interview process was awful and heartbreaking when finding out that I didn't even get the job.
