Interview
First interview was a basic Skype interview where they just wanted to get to know me more. Second interview I was ask to come in to the office where I met with 6 sales managers and was interview by them 2 at a time. They wanted to know more about my experience and asked me some situational questions. This took about 2.5 hours. The third interview I came back and met with the sales managers along with a few tour consultants. They got a bit deeper into the tour consultant position. The questions got a bit more difficult and situational. This was also 2.5 hours. I got an email the next week that I didn't get the position. The entire process took about 3-4 weeks. It was great interviewing practice and everyone was very friendly.

Great interview. Was hoping there was more flexibility on remote work as the office is quite a drive from me. Also if we are on phones all day, seems like working remotely would be a good environment as it’s not distracting
