Behavioral Presentation

It was a well organized interview process. The recruiter contacted me on LinkedIn and set up three phone calls with the VP of Sales, Worldwide VP of Sales, and the Pre Sales and Professional Services leader. I was given some info on what to expect in each interview to help me prepare. After the phone interviews, I went to San Francisco for an onsite interview. My day started with a presentation to about 10 people from the MemSQL team and then I had back to back interviews until 5pm. The questions were not very technical, and I think if you have sales experience, you'll be able to answer them. Everyone was really nice and welcoming. I got the offer the next day.
