First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at ON24, Inc..
Sales Director
I went through several video interviews with sales management and their peers, totaling at least 7 over 3 weeks. They used Teams for these. It was funny because the interviewers seemed unprepared and like they were just going through the motions. Some didn't even know what role I was interviewing for, and others were late. I did well enough to advance to a mock sales discovery and presentation interview round. I was a finalist, and they said a decision would be made by the end of that week after the final interview. However, there was no follow-up from the ON24 talent manager or hiring manager. I was ghosted after weeks of interviewing, with no even a courtesy email. It was very unprofessional.
- What podcasts do you listen to?
- What's the last book you read?
Sales Director
The interview process felt like something out of the Twilight Zone. I was initially told I'd have autonomy in managing my team, but it turned out to be extreme micromanagement from the top. The company presented itself as very structured and deadline-oriented during the interview, but in reality, it was chaotic, like a constant pre-IPO scramble. What I was told and what actually happened were completely different. I regret not leaving on day one; it was the biggest career mistake I've ever made.
- Tell me about your most significant failure.
Sales Director
There were two in-person interviews. The first was with the HR Manager. After that, there was another interview with the VP of Sales and two team members. The in-person part was split into three sections: first with HR, then with the two team members together, and finally with the VP of sales. This was followed by a background check and then an offer.
- Can you describe a deal you successfully closed this year?
