Sales Development Representative
This interview wasn't for a specific job, but rather to see if I'd be a good fit to have my profile added to their website for other companies to recruit me from. It's basically a middleman recruiting service. I was hoping to find a real job, so it was kind of a bummer that they weren't upfront about this.
- What makes you want to work in tech sales?
Sales Development Representative
I went to a LaunchSource career combine on July 22nd. It's a cool event where job seekers can meet employers in a "Shark Tank" style setting. The companies introduce themselves and talk about why they're great places to work, then each candidate gets a 5-minute interview with company reps during the combine. If companies are interested, they'll reach out to move forward to an in-person interview. The LaunchSource staff were really friendly, professional, and knew their stuff. The combine environment isn't competitive; they're genuinely there to help you find a good job. I'd definitely recommend a LaunchSource combine.
- Tell me about a time you disregarded advice from someone you respected. What was the context, why did you choose not to follow their advice, and what was the outcome?
Sales Development Representative
First, there's an initial phone screen. Then, you'll schedule a time for an in-person group stage interview with about 10-20 other applicants. This is with a growing young business looking for talent. You'll get a response within 48 hours. Note: if you don't get this specific job, they might still look for other opportunities for you.
- What motivates you to pursue a sales career?
- Describe your preparation for a sales career.
- What would you consider your greatest weakness?
