Question 1
Walk me through a deal that you closed.
What did you learn from a deal that you lost?
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 8 weeks. I interviewed at Databricks (Seattle, WA) in Apr 2025
Interview
Absolutely awful. In one cycle, the VP rescheduled on me twice with very little notice, which was fine, but then when we finally had the interview, he was picking his nose on camera repeatedly, and wiping his face. Told me he would progress me to the next step, and then went dark until recruiting told me they are going in another direction.

What do I know about their product and the industry.
I applied in-person. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Databricks in Feb 2022
Interview
Swift, with a lot of personal attention. Great guidance from the recruiting team. The process is standardized and a lot of focus on the cultural fit. Being truly customer-obsessed was also extensively discussed and validated.
