Dropbox Sales Development Representative Interview Questions
& Process

I had two phone screens, and then an on-site interview with four different people. Everything seemed to go well, and they asked some standard questions. They also asked why I was leaving my current job. When I explained, one of the interviewers said that wasn't very fair. They asked questions about product knowledge, how I'd build a pipeline, and my vision for Dropbox's future. I didn't get the job because they said I wasn't what they were looking for. Honestly, that should have been determined after the phone screen, so I didn't get the offer. I wish recruiters would figure out what they want beforehand and tell candidates so we don't waste our time. It felt very unprofessional, and I wouldn't recommend Dropbox based on this interview experience.

The interview process moved really quickly. Soon after applying online, I got an invite for a first phone interview with someone from the Dublin team. They wanted to check if I was a good fit and asked why I wanted to join Dropbox and work in sales. We also did a quick role play selling to consumers, which was pretty simple. The next day, I was invited for an on-site interview with three other team members. These chats were chill and informal, we even shared some laughs. They asked me situational questions about the job and my thoughts on how Dropbox could do well in Europe or a specific industry, and why. During the interviews, they also tested my knowledge about Dropbox, asking what I liked best, what I'd change, and what makes it successful. I felt a real connection with the team; everyone was super friendly and helpful. It seems like a young, driven team with a startup vibe. They actually called me before I left Dublin to offer me the job! My best advice is to just be yourself, have a relaxed chat, and ask plenty of questions.

Had a 30min call with HR first. Then went for a 1h on-site interview with 3 interviewers. They asked a lot of questions but none were about my background or experience. The interviewers were nice, except the last one who was kind of rude. Got rejected a week later, but it was ok because I got hired elsewhere. I was annoyed though because they said they'd pay me back for travel but it took 3 months and they ignored my emails. Communication was not their strong suit.
