      Account Executive Interview

      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Darktrace (London, England) in Sept 2025

      Interview

      Screening call - recruiter missed first call, then rescheduled 2nd and made third. Told me next round was with manager & would get an update within the week. Didn't hear anything, emailed for an update & was ignored. Disorganised process

      Account Executive Interview

      Application

      I interviewed at Darktrace

      Interview

      All over the place, the recruiter made a point of being very pedantic, it was more of a lecture than an interview, negative in tone and hardly asked me anything about my experience or motivation. The location of the job is different than the posting, they changed it afterwards, but it says one city, and within the description it now lists another, which was not on the original job posting but still is confusing based off a search. The worst example was criticizing my resume length, telling me I needed to get it from 4 to 2 pages, when it was only 2. She showed me her screen, and it stated at the top, high-lighted in bold color that the display length had altered the original format and length. She didn't even apologize after her mistake. Clearly, they don't respect people there, and it's probably all smoke in mirrors based on the reviews that say the number is unattainable, which leads me to believe that they sabotage or crush their AEs, give high numbers so they don't need to pay commissions, or most likely all of the above.

      I interviewed at Darktrace (London, England)

      Interview

      Was fairly easy just sales competency questions. They mainly questions about your background, why darktrace etc. If you can clearly explain darktrace you will be fine and it wont be too difficult a process
