It was a difficult but fair process with a few interviews. They had me do a role-play cold call and give a slide presentation. Basically, you do the job you're applying for. It ended up being 3-4 interviews, with several calls with SDR managers and then a final call with the director of sales development.

Presentation Behavioral Other

It was pretty easy, mostly just talking. You had to do 3 things: first, talk about your favorite hobby for 5-10 minutes so they could learn about it. Second, be able to give a prospect presentation smoothly. Lastly, tell a customer story that they'd give you before the last interview.

Behavioral Other

The process started out okay with a recruiter and Hiring Manager interview, but then talking to the rest of the American Sales team was weird. They didn't seem to know each other or why I was there. It didn't feel like a welcoming place, and I got the vibe that the Rubrik sales team isn't very supportive, especially remote. Glad I didn't end up working there. When I asked for feedback at the end, nobody responded. There was miscommunication the whole time.
