This was a very strange interview process. They give you a structure in which the first 15 minutes are supposed to be this S.T.A.R system for describing your successes. After that the next 45 minutes are supposed to be a disco call.
Well, I get to the interview and the interviewer skips the first part (which I had spend 1.5 hours preparing for). We jump straight to the mock disco and I ask open-ended questions expecting more detailed responses but the interviewer was being intentionally vague and didn't give any information, as a normal person would do.
I have no idea what this company is looking for but I've been in sales 7 years and never had conversations go like this. It was bizarre.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
They simply did a mock demo, didn't ask any questions.
Phone Screen with Recruiter (off-camera)
Interview with Manager (mock disco)
Interview with another Manager (mock solution presentation)
Interview with your Sales Director (pretty easy, be human, we talked about fishing)
The two managers you get can make or break you getting in as some are tougher than others.
Multiple meetings and material to review for your interview stages. Be prepared to take 5 hours out of your work day to join the interview prep calls and meetings. Total time dedicated to interviews and preparation time roughly 10 hours.
I applied online. I interviewed at HubSpot (Munich, Bavaria) in Feb 2026
Interview
Super friendly people. Direct and they genuinely believe in adding strong people to their team. I had 2 rounds after which I was rejected.
It’s definitely a nice company to be at. They also encourage to keep trying.
