Seattle, WAPosted Mar 2019 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

My two-step interview for the Account Executive role was average in difficulty and included a sales simulation where I had to present and close.

Interview with SDR managers — We went through standard questions about my background and why I wanted the role.
Interview with higher-up sales director — I was asked to pick something I was passionate about and sell it; the conversation emphasized confidence, asking questions about needs, and closing. Outcome: I didn’t get the job, and my takeaway was that attention to presentation and closing mattered a lot—especially in the final stage.
