I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Verkada (Austin, TX) in Aug 2021
Interview
This was one of the smoothest interview processes I've ever experienced. Chelsea (Sales Recruiter) guided me throughout the entire interview process - she prepared me for each interview, worked around my work schedule, and effectively communicated with me (providing me with constant updates via text and phone call).
The interview process consisted of an exploratory call /interview with a Sales Recruiter; a phone interview with a Sales Development Manager; another phone interview with a different Sales Development Manager; three separate (back-to-back-to-back) Zoom video calls with a Sales Development Manager, Inside Sales Manager, and a Team Lead; and a final-round interview with the Director of Business Development.
