ParisPosted May 2024 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

My initial rounds started with informal introductory calls with different sales leaders—more of a meet-and-greet than a formal interview.

Then I got pulled into a live presentation with a small group of sales leaders that quickly felt uncomfortable, mainly because the tone in the room came across as unusually arrogant.

During the discussion, I ran into questions that didn’t feel like they matched my background—especially around “search as a service.” I wasn’t an expert there, and it made the whole interaction feel odd for an interview: the group seemed certain of themselves while also not really meeting me where I was.

Even though people at the company can communicate well, this overall experience left a negative impression
