Dover, NJPosted Jan 2026 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

I interviewed for the Account Executive role with a friendly process that either happened entirely by Zoom or mixed phone/virtual steps, typically within a short timeline.

Recruiter screen — a brief chat about my background and interest in the role; for one path, a recruiter reached out first and handled scheduling.
Virtual Store Operations / panel-style interview (Teams/Zoom) — I discussed accomplishments and fit, with questions about how I’d handle the job; one panel included multiple commercial sales managers.
Onsite follow-up / manager time — I met with store leadership for basic questions and expectations, and in one case the process also set up training soon after.

Outcome: The experience felt approachable and moderate in
