Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Optomi.
Account Executive
So basically, a recruiter hit me up on Linkedin about a job for their client. We had a quick 15 minute chat first, then we set up another call for me to ask questions the client had. But on the day of the interview, the recruiter just ghosted me. No heads up, no email, not even a reply to my message asking where they were. Honestly, super unprofessional, especially since they were the ones who reached out.
- Do you have experience in a hunter role?
Account Executive
Got connected with the director of sales via a client from my last job. Then had a 1-hour phone chat with the director. After that, met up in person with a senior rep and the director. Finally, I talked to 3 current team members who have been there for different lengths of time, from 6 months to over 5 years.
- Can you describe your current methods for prospecting and scheduling meetings?
- What's your success rate when it comes to prospecting and setting meetings?
- What's your experience with the sales process like?
Account Executive
I got a referral to Optomi from someone I used to work with, and they gave me the contact info for a VP there. I called her, and we had a really long talk about how Optomi was doing at the time, why they started the company, their culture, and their growth plans. We also talked about my background and what I was looking for in my next career move. She clearly laid out what would happen next and set up a meeting with the Director of Corporate Relations. After that, I spoke with someone who gave me a full rundown of benefits, what they expect you to do, pay, and the timeline. Then, I had an in-person interview with the CEO, Michael Winwood, while he was in town. He went over the company's beginnings, its spirit and goals, and answered my questions. After all these talks, they told me their timeline for hiring and how they'd be in touch.
