      Sales Associate Interview

      Mar 15, 2010
      Anonymous employee
      Accepted offer
      Neutral experience
      Average interview

      Application

      The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Sun Life in Mar 2010

      Interview

      I honestly thought my interviewer hated me and was very surprised when they asked me to continue the interview process. I interviewed for a Sales Associate position and when he asked me how my friends would describe me (a crappy question in itself), he looked like he wanted to kill me when I said I was easy-going and polite. A nearly direct quote: "That's not what I look for in Sales People." Chilling. I snapped into super professional, extra ambitious mode and he seemed to like that better... easy enough. The next step for me was completion of a 9 PAGE questionnaire. 9 PAGES of repeated questions and cryptic personality-related questions. Yikes. I'm still waiting to hear back about a second round. Cross your fingers for me!

      Positive experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Sun Life (Toronto, ON) in Mar 2018

      Interview

      Sat down with manager and talked through typical questions on interpersonal skills. Low technical difficulty on understanding of products. Mostly behavioural questions to see if you would work well with the existing team and on your own since it's an entrepreneurial job
