My Fanbox Interview Experience
Grades

The hiring process was smooth. I spoke with Brandie Williams on the phone and she explained to me what Fanbox was in need of and why she thought I would be a good fit. We talked for approx. 20 minutes and then scheduled a time for me to come in and meet with Mike Pousti and her. When I arrived everyone was ready and we sat down for our first interview which lasted 3 hours. I followed up with 2 additional interviews, with the total interview time amounting to 11 hours. My interview was long as I was being considered for a seat on their executive team and I needed to understand as much about the business as possible. My interview process was awesome, both Mike and Brandi and the entire Fanbox team was respectful, honest and passionate about the product. I was and still remain a fan of the company and would definitely consider working for them in the future. For me the timing was off, that is the only reason I did not join. Fanbox made me and amazing offer one that was very difficult for me to pass on.
I am currently running a recruiting agency and I had to make the difficult decision which company I wanted to be in. I chose my own business because I have an entrepreneurial spirit and I wanted to see my business through to success. I know we will do business together in the future and I welcome the opportunity to work with Fanbox. Knowledge is Power! Go Fanbox...

I am a current employee and I have to say that a lot of the negative press and bad reviews about Fanbox or SMS.ac are extremely outdated.
When I first interviewed with Fanbox they were extremely upfront with about what I could expect here and what I might find with a simple Google search.
After a phone interview and two in person interviews I was offered a job and an hourly rate- which I was able to negotiate. I have been here for about three months and I have to say that so far this company has exceed my expectations. Everyone here is so nice- I have made some good friends with those that work on my team and everyone here is really understanding as well. The free lunch and dinner is an amazing perk, as is one week of per calendar quarter.
Again, like I said everything that you find on the web is at least two years old and Fanbox has completely revamped their platform. It is no longer a "spamming" product, but rather a social networking community that is working to change the way commerce and community exist on the Internet.
If you are considering Fanbox as your employer, please remember that we are in fact a start-up and there have been some rocky times, but we have remained fervent and passionate about this company and our product.
Wait 3 months, then the layoffs began because they have no money :( . If mike is still running the show there is nothing different about Fanbox, its still the same!
ive actually been here longer than three months and i still love it.
