Me postulé en línea. El proceso tomó 2 días. Acudí a una entrevista en Verkada en mar 2024
Entrevista
I had a dreadful phone screen. The recruiterwas incredibly rude and interrupted me constantly. They had a snarky remark for almost everything I said and was really hung up on the fact that I had not hired AEs who had closed million dollar deals (They should know that recruiters cannot control the sales deal size that AEs close!)
At one point when I was describing my experience, they interrupted me and said "Now tell me what you really did in your job." Like they were not listening to what I said previously or they did not believe my previous descriptions of my role.
They left no time for questions and barely spoke about Verkada or the role.
I was so happy when the call was over and relieved when the rejection email promptly came a few days later. I could not work at a place like that.
Me postulé a través de una recomendación de un empleado. El proceso tomó 6 semanas. Acudí a una entrevista en Verkada (Salt Lake City, UT) en may 2024
Entrevista
My first interview was conducted by a recruiter in the home office over the phone. My second interview was a Zoom interview with the recruiter in the office where the role was posted (Salt Lake City). I then was invited onsite where I gave a brief presentation followed by three 30 minute interviews with sales leaders. The last portion of my interview was all done on Zoom, three individual interviews for 30 minutes each. I met with two managers from the home office and the vp of sales in Salt Lake City.

Entrevista
I had an initial call with the sales recruiter and she was so rude from the jump. She grilled me with questions rapid-fire style and would barely let me get my last word out. She chuckled at some of my responses and she continuously challenged my experience or what I said in a combative way. The whole call was agressive. She had a distasteful tone the whole time and finally let me ask questions for the last 5 min. There's so much about the job and team I got no information about because she didn't spend any time walking me through anything nor did she try to talk about Verkada positively either. I'm just SHOCKED that a recruiter could actually talk to a fellow recruiter this way, because as a recruiter I know how candidate experience should be and that is not it.
I was curious as to why she asked about so many specific things about the AE's I hired when I hadn't even had a chance to ask questions and I realize those things are the issues that they are having with their sales team per the reviews on here.
No candidate should leave an interview feeling disrespected. I have no idea if they will want to move forward but I definitely don't.
