I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Xerox (Dubai) in Jun 2011
Interview
Initial HR screening followed by two interviews with the Line Manager and Sales Director. The interview process was quite clear and smooth. HR Interview was focused at general profile and background checking. The LM interview was about skill alignment to the role. The interview with the Sales Director focused on overall selling skills including a role-playing exercise on how to pitch for an opportunity.
Once an offer was made, the on-boarding process was quite tedious and the operational team was not very helpful/open about the various steps involved.
