Saint Louis, MOPosted Nov 2025 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

I interviewed for an Account Executive position with an average difficulty and a timeline that typically moved from recruiter outreach to manager conversations, sometimes totaling a couple of hours.

Recruiter screen — A phone or virtual recruiter step about my background, with behavior questions and role fit.
Hiring manager interview — A video meeting focused on my experience and STAR-style behavioral responses.
Second manager / team round — Another conversation covering expectations and team fit; in one case it was with a district sales manager and a field rep.
Additional step (when applicable) — I also had interviews that included meeting another manager over the phone, and in one journey a sales quiz after interviews. Outcome: No offer, but the interviews
