6sense Account Executive interviews, decoded.

A previous colleague referred me, and after I sent in my resume, the recruiter contacted me about 4 weeks later. I set up a phone screen, but the recruiter was 10 minutes late and I had to email them to get their attention. When they finally called, they seemed uninterested, like I was bothering them. They asked a couple of questions and said they'd forward my info to the hiring manager. A week after that, the recruiter let me know they decided not to move forward with my application.

We started with a recruiter screening, then a chat with the hiring manager. After that, we met up in person over coffee and I got a tour of the office. Then I met with the VP of EMEA. Finally, there was a task and a panel interview with the Hiring Manager and two Commercial leaders from different parts of the business. The whole thing took about 4 weeks.

Recruiter reached out on LinkedIn, and I shared my number and personal email. Had a call the next day, but he seemed unengaged. I gave an overview of my experience and role, and he said he'd speak with the hiring managers and follow up. I felt it was a no, but he didn't communicate that directly. The worst part was he sent the rejection email titled "6sense Application" to my work email, which logs in Gong and Salesforce. I never applied, he reached out to me. I followed up from my personal email, giving him a chance to acknowledge the mistake, but he didn't address it. Overall, it was a very negative experience.
