"Entreprenuerial Culture and Great Learning Experience"

What do you like about working at 360training.com?

"The Company is very entrepreneurial and its fast paced. You will get to learn a ton.

The culture at 360training.com really fits my personality and I feel like I am being rewarded appropriately- I love my job!"

Do you have any tips for others interviewing with this company?

"if you are going to be interviewed for a key or a management position, you will be required to do a 30-60-90 day plan. Make sure you ask a lot of questions to existing people and come up with a plan as if you are within the company and not a generic plan"

"II like the flexibility in schedule where I do not have an office or manager to report to and my schedule is my own."
