Behavioral Presentation

HR reached out on LinkedIn and we had a brief call. Then I spoke with the hiring managers who explained their CS approach (they have a dedicated CS team and a strong support team). They inquired about my experience with cross-selling and upselling. It felt like a casual conversation. The next step involved a meeting with the VP, where I introduced myself and we discussed our individual philosophies on Customer Success and NRR.

The interview process is pretty standard with typical questions. What I thought was crazy is their assignment they give you. For basically an entry level position they are requiring you to do a 4-5 part assessment where you go through their software, do an SBR, as well as other things. I was interested in the role until I had to do this, the amount of energy and time I’d spend on the opportunity to get arguably minimum pay for a CSM role was not worth my time and not worth any other potential CSM. There are companies with simpler interviews and pay more for their entry level positions.

Behavioral Technical Case

The whole thing took about 3 weeks. First was a quick HR phone call, pretty basic stuff. Then I had a chat with my direct manager, about 40 mins, pretty chill but they asked a lot about my past jobs and duties, plus some behavioral stuff. Right after that, I got an assignment where I had to look at an account performance graph and suggest how Guesty products could help. It wasn't super hard but needed some prep. I heard back in 2-3 days. The toughest part was the one-on-one with the VP of CS, definitely needed to prep a lot for this. Most of the questions I got were from this meeting. About a week after that, HR told me they went with other people. I felt like I put in a lot of work, so I asked HR for more feedback, which was surprisingly helpful. She said the main issues were that I hadn't managed more than 15 accounts before and some of my answers weren't super clear.
