Behavioral Presentation

So the interview process has a few stages and you'll chat with different people in the company. Usually, it's interviews with the sales team here, then the regional bosses, then the EMEA leadership, and in my case, I even talked to the Chief Revenue Officer. It's a way to make sure everyone's on the same page about what the job is and if you'll fit in with the team at different levels.

Behavioral Other

the interviewer was super rude and condescending. He mentioned he wanted someone with 15-20 years of experience, but the job description only said at least 5 years. There was definitely a mix-up between him and HR. Totally not worth my time.

Behavioral Technical Presentation

We started with a phone interview, and then had 2 in-person interviews with the manager and the VP of Sales. The onsite was a long one with many detailed questions about the job market and strategy. They really wanted to know about my past research and cold calling abilities, and how I could contribute to marketing the company.
