My process was organized into clear steps and mostly felt smooth. I started with an application assignment, then moved into an interview that was in person when possible (or a phone interview if needed). After that came a take-home exercise, and finally a final round interview before reference and background checks.
What stood out to me was how the take-home exercise and mock-style components gave me a real sense of the day-to-day work and whether it was the kind of role I’d enjoy. The overall tone from the team was collaborative and patient; during the live conversations it felt less like a rigid grilling and more like a discussion with colleagues, including connecting about job and life.

My interview journey was unusually demanding and required a lot of work compared to other startup sales roles I’d seen. I went through multiple rounds, including written assignments that took hours to prepare because they forced me to learn a product and then pitch it as if it were a real sales meeting. The preparation time stood out the most to me—getting ready for a short mock presentation meant spending a long stretch of time digging into what the product did and how to talk about it.
After that, the live portion added more effort, including a longer set of interviews with multiple people and a mock client-style call. I got feedback throughout the process, but the logistics of the final stage were rough for me: I had to travel for a last-round interview, and because of issues at the airport I ended up arriving on a different day, which meant extra time off work and out-of-pocket expenses beyond the flight itself.
