I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Red Ventures (Fort Mill, SC) in Aug 2011
Interview
They seemed very focused on their 'fun' culture- may be a good job for young people- first job. Was loud and a bit chaotic on sales floor. They always have the numbers on display-ie, the sales numbers- all around the worksite-this is an interesting concept as everyone always knows if the goals are being met. Could be interpreted as a bit big brotherish by some, but not in my opinion.
People attending the job fair red ventures had ranged from professional to wearing a tshirt and baseball cap.
I applied in-person. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Red Ventures in Jul 2018
Interview
Phone screen at first, then got a second at their main campus. The interview was a two stage process. First you learn about the company and they have a mock phone call where they give feedback. Then a "hiring manager" does the second interview. The first person was in a sales role before and should have done the second interview, the second was an hr person with no sales experience. She was pleasant, but told me she would call, only to find a form letter of rejection in my inbox. I have 20 plus years of sales experience and traveled 8 hours for the interview. This is found to be just unprofessional. It looks like a good company, but if they want good sales people, have sales people do the hiring.

Interview
Applied online. Was then prompted to schedule a phone interview for one week later. Phone interview was brief (5-10 minutes). They asked why I was interested in sales and why Red ventures. At end of phone interview I was prompted to schedule an onsite interview. That interview lasted about 2 hrs. 1 hr of tour around campus and 1 hr of interview. In the interview they asked how I stay organized, what I do for fun, give an example of a time you had to be persuasive, and give and example of when you responded to negative feedback. Then the have you read over a mock sales script where the interviewer role plays as a customer. Make sure to always be closing during this exercise. I was criticized for leaving too many open ended questions to the interviewer.
