Behavioral Case Presentation

Went through HR screen, then spoke with the hiring manager, another front line manager, a CSM counterpart, and the Dir of CS. It ended with a case study presented to a panel. It was annoying to spend so much time on the case study only for HR to come back saying "legal doesn't allow us to provide feedback." I feel like I dodged a bullet though, the people I interviewed with seemed pretty unhappy.

Behavioral Case Presentation

The process was smooth with good feedback. The recruiter kept us updated after every interview. There were four interviews in total, plus a case study. The case study involved selecting an account and developing strategies for it using a small data set.

Confirmed questions2 questions
  • Culture fit is very important to us, how do you feel about that?
  • A case study was assigned, focusing on an account of your choice and strategic planning with a limited data subset.

I had an interview with the recruiter first, and then with the CS team lead. They asked very basic questions, like on the first page of Google. It felt like they were just going through the motions. I'm not sure why they even selected me for an interview, especially since the interviewer had only 4 years of experience in CS while I have 15 years. As expected, I got a rejection email. It mentioned that Highspot doesn't give specific feedback, which says a lot about their culture. Reading reviews on Glassdoor makes me think I dodged a bullet.

Confirmed questions2 questions
  • How do you handle churn management?
  • What is the Net Promoter Score (NPS)?
