Had a few phone and video calls. Things seemed to be moving along well and the people I talked to were enthusiastic, but ultimately I wasn't selected for the position and didn't receive any feedback. The individuals I interviewed with seemed great, but maybe they weren't the ones who made the final hiring decision.

Presentation Behavioral Technical
The interview process involved four interviews: three with managing directors and one with the head of sales. I had to present a business plan for growth in my territory. They also asked basic sales-related questions to assess my salesmanship. They emphasized culture, mentioning their open working environment and flat hierarchy as important aspects.

Behavioral Technical Presentation
The interview process is quite intense, resembling the Spanish Inquisition. You'll be questioned by peers, superiors, and subordinates on various topics, often based on their immediate interests. The main goal is to assess your cultural fit, as they have a unique company culture. It's an environment where decisions are made by consensus, yet everyone considers themselves entrepreneurs. They believe they are bright, but admit the standards aren't very high. During the interview, remember to focus on the person asking the questions.
