Me postulé a través de una recomendación de un empleado. El proceso tomó 4 semanas. Acudí a una entrevista en Smarsh (New York, NY) en jul 2024
Entrevista
Interviews: Recruiter Interview & 3 additional interviews from the Solutions Engineering Team.
One of the oddest interviews I have ever had for a "PRE-Sales" Solution Engineer Position.
1) Minimal to no Technical questions.
2) Most questions were SALES Methodology BASED (MEDDIC/ SCRUM/SPIN). {Which many entry level SE's and some sales people would certainly not be familiar with or asked)
3) Many questions on Discovery-Sales-POC technique
- It was obvious from the interview the company is having issues closing POC's and converting to sales.
- It was also clear that SALES and SE's are having collaboration issues.
- It was clear that the company is bogged down with RFI\RFP's that are written by other companies - hence, they are spending too much time responding and not initiating those.
- Unclear if Sales are hitting their targets as the Sales Cycles are extremely long.
Got the impression the company is interviewing candidates and feeling out the market only.
