Phone screen for first round. Recruiter for Toronto location is from the LA team.
Questions were a very poor assessment of any candidate's skills and abilities. Just a get to know you/vibe check. If you want to know why their sales quota attainment is below 50%, finding and hiring qualified candidates would definitely be a reason why.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
A total of 3 questions:
1. Tell me about yourself
2. What have you been doing since covid
3. Why sales
They make you do a group presentation whereby they assess your communication skills. Furthermore they assess how you handle objection. This is because within sales you will encounter a lot of rejection.
Recruiter kept forgetting information about me during the process. Super unprofessional and was obviously trying to hit quota rather than find qualified candidates. Second round was a group interview, then the last round is individual again
Three interviews - one group one final
One introductory call
-group was over zoom and they put you in groups to come up with a company that could use meltwater
-group was fairly easy
-final interview roleplay
