Entrevista
I received a call from the Recruitment & HR Manager around half hour after sending my CV on a Thursday. We had a nice chat about the reasons why I moved to London etc. I got invited to the interview which took place on a Tuesday.
I didn't have any expectations at all because a lot of companies have funny videos and fancy homepages and they are offering you the world. The Glassdoor reviews made me slightly more curious about what was going on at Ink and made me wonder if they were actually paying their employees to leave good reviews on here...
The interview took place at the Ink HQ in London which was quite easy to get to as both, the Overground and Underground are literally just around the corner.
I felt comfortable straight away. After having a long conversation with the HR Manager, I got to meet the Sales Manager as well. I remember myself being pleasantly surprised how much time we spent talking and I felt like they really wanted to get to know me.
They asked me if I could start immediately and I said yes, so they scheduled an appointment with the Sales Director for the same day. Two hours later, after having lunch in one of the nice restaurants near the office, I had my third interview. I could tell that the Sales Director was trying to make me nervous and kind of testing me but as I already mentioned, I felt very comfortable being there and had the impression that I would fit in perfectly by just being myself.
...aaaand apparently it worked because I got hired! My first day at work was the day after my interview.
All in all it was the best interview experience I ever had, it kind of felt like one of those once in a lifetime experiences.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not one of those hyper and overexcited people but after a couple of days at work I'm still very excited and can't wait to start my training. The colleagues are fun and helpful and there's definitely a good vibe which makes it easier to get up early, get ready and jump on the train to West Hampstead.
Ink has a lot to offer if you take the chance - applying for the job is the first step.

Q:
- Tell me about yourself.
- Why Ink?
- Why Sales?
- What are you passionate about?
- Why are you so confident? (I think it was a mix of me being really excited about the job and him trying to confuse me with that question)

I originally spoke with Victoria who was incredibly lovely and helped me feel very confident and also asked fantastic questions to get me to open up.
After this I had a further two interviews quickly after each other and after the last interview where I was put under pressure a little more, I ended up being offered a job!
Ink very very accommodating to the fact that I was working at the time of the interviews and Victoria was always there to help when I had questions

Entrevista
I got a call when we spoke briefly and then they invited me for an interview immediately. They went through all my CV asking questions about what I did in my previous jobs and how was it connected to sales. They wanted to know if I understand this position is cold-calling job. They are officially informing you that should working over hours. You must work before work, after work and on weekends.
If you have any social life, family or hobbies I would advise not to bother to apply for this company.
They gave me task to research a lot of companies for them and they wanted me to complete this immediately which was suspicious.
Only for desperate people.

Quick to set up interview after quick phone discussion, sat down asked questions, standard stuff. They seemed positive about me, already talking about a second interview etc., easy and relaxing to talk to.
Under a week later got an email saying I'd interviewed well but didn't have enough sales experience, even though two different people who interviewed me told me they didn't look at expereience and preferred those without as they liked to 'mould' newbies - weird.
