The interview process included an HR screening, a video interview with the Global Head of Sales and a take-home sales assessment.
The role was presented as a highly autonomous hunter position with a strong focus on outbound prospecting, cold outreach and self-generated pipeline. During the interview, significant emphasis was placed on activity volume, ownership and the expectation that new hires should become productive very quickly.
Candidates should be prepared for a direct and challenging interview style. The discussion focused heavily on personal accountability, resilience, work ethic and the ability to operate independently with limited support.
The take-home assignment was detailed and required preparation of outreach sequences, target account research, prospecting strategy and objection handling examples.
While the process provided a clear picture of the company's expectations, I ultimately decided not to continue because I was looking for a different management style and sales environment.
