I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Hilti North America (Houston, TX) in Feb 2014
Interview
Typical sales interview questions. Be prepared to talk about your past experiences/successes. Any awards you were given at previous sales job need to be highlighted. Be prepared to talk about the sales process at your previous job. This job does not require a lot of cold calling, as Hilti wants you to grow your top accounts. So try and talk about what you did to grow your top accounts at your previous position.

Question 1
Name a that you had a disagreement with a coworker, and what did you do to remedy the situation.
What would you say your biggest strength is?
What would you say your biggest weakness is?
The rest are pretty standard sales interview questions. The interview is not hard. Just be personable, sharp, and know your resume and your accomplishments.
I interviewed at Hilti North America (Savannah, GA)
Interview
Process was great. Recruiter reached out and did initial screening. I had second interview with the area manager who really did a good job getting to know me and passed me on to the final stage interview with the regional manager. I didn’t get the job, but overall it was a great process with the processes, clarity and honesty you’d expect from a good company.

I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Hilti North America (Grand Rapids, MI) in Oct 2025
Interview
Phone screen with a Hilti-employed recruiter, interviewed with the regional manager, and a final interview with the director of the territory. My interview with the regional manager lasted almost an hour and a half, but I'm not sure if that is the norm.
