I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Green Wave Ingredients (La Mirada, CA) in Feb 2015
Interview
Several people joined the interview, Sales Management, HR, Company Owner, and a former owner of the business and an IT person. First interview 1/2 hour is with HR. There are very few requirements, other than an existing book of business. Had I known that was all they were interested in, I would have run. HR was great, that was the reason I considered the position after the interview.
Beware of tacky personal jabs, inappropriate references.

Interview
I had a phone interview and a skype interview. The interview process went well and the HR person was great. They told me that they had many leads and that I would be the only salesperson for my territory/state. I was led to believe there were many opportunities and we negotiated a salary and a commission structure. Shortly after being hired they sent me a letter changing the commission structure. They also hired someone else to take part of my territory and gave him current large clients. I found out later the hire had an in with the owner. This company seems good up front, but they mess with you after getting hired. They change the pay structure, they aren't honest about your territory. It was very disappointing.
