I was contacted on LinkedIn initially. The interview process was via video. First, I had a call with the recruiter, then with the Sales Manager and Technical Manager. After that, HR was supposed to call me back, but they ghosted me. If a company ghosts you, it's a good indicator of how they treat employees. Anyway, I'm pretty happy with my current job.

You'll start with a recruiter call. It's usually straightforward, but they'll ask all the usual stuff. Keep in mind they get a bonus if you're hired, so they'll offer tips for your next interview. The one-on-one was definitely tougher. They'll grill you on why you're in IT sales, how you found out about us, and ask for an example of an open-ended question, among other things. Make sure you have plenty of questions prepared for them, too. They want to see that you're interested and did your homework.

Applied, had an initial screening, was told I was a great candidate and the hiring manager would follow up. Two weeks later, I followed up for an update. The recruiter responded with an invite to set up another initial screening, which I had already completed. It seems the recruiter didn't even read my follow-up email.
