I applied through college or university. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at C.H. Robinson (Chicago, IL) in Mar 2010
Interview
Initial contact made at university career fair. I wanted to keep my options open while looking at sales & marketing internships. From the beginning this was a "last option." Interview was not challenging if you have a selling personality. I was treated very well. Hotel and flight paid for during Chicago interview.
Interview consisted of personality and experience with a mock sale thrown in. Not bad... somewhat enjoyable.
