      Sales "Engineer" Interview

      26 Feb 2016
      Anonymous employee
      San Jose, CA
      Accepted offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Continuum Lasers (San Jose, CA) in Nov 2015

      Interview

      Recruiter interviewed my from Monster, she knew nothing about the industry. Second phone interviews (2) were with hiring manager. Flew to San Jose, CA for an In person interview with the hiring manager, Lase scientists (2), met with HR Manager, then gave a presentation to a group of managers, ( engineering, production, finance) on my territory management process. Was given a tour to the plant, which was empty. Not a single product was in WIP (this is a major red flag - they have now production going on). Interviewed with Controller. A week later the offer was made. I had to submit my travel expense 3 times, and it took over a month to be reimbursed (another red flag). I was told by the hiring manager that the new French owners were hands off and allowing them to operate autonomously. The hiring manager quite after 4 weeks of my starting. If you are not French you will be discriminated against.
