- Can you share an instance where you negotiated with a customer?
Account Executive
I had a phone screen with the hiring manager. Then, I went in for an in-person panel interview with the manager, a sales engineer, and a peer. A few days after the panel, I had a final interview with the regional manager. The decision was actually made during the panel, which was pretty tough. They asked questions from all angles and different job titles, so it was good I prepared. The final interview seemed more like a formality.
- Can you share an instance where you navigated closing a difficult deal?
- Could you outline your typical workday and your sales processes?
Senior Account Executive
Applied online, then scheduled a phone interview where I had to answer questions properly and ask HR about company culture and the work environment. After that, I interviewed with the Manager and then met the Regional Manager on the same day. Completed hiring documents and flew to HQ for product line training.
