Entrevista
This was a multi stage interview process. It began with a 30 minute phone screen with a recruiter. There was a take home exercise to demonstrate knowledge of their product, prospects, and your outbound selling approach.
Next was a call with the SDR manager. Then there was a superday interview with several of their SDR's, sales enablement, AE's, and marketing people who work directly with the SDR team. After that they asked for references.

1. Screening
Over 200 applicants. My resume didn’t go through the system but I networked with the recruiter and SDR lead to get a phone screening.
2. Written out cadence
They make you write out a cadence of how you’d reach out to a prospect
Told me I have positive feedback and established next steps to talk to Senior SDR Lead.
3. Interview
Went through my accomplishments, KPIs, tech stack, answered 2 STAR questions. I closed the interview asking if he had any reservations about me and my qualifications? He said no, he said “you’d be more qualified for our senior SDR team”. I asked about next steps and it was meeting the team. We established next steps to meet the team and I thought we ended the interview good.
4. I followed up thanking him via LinkedIn as I didn’t grab his email but made it personal while waiting for his professional email from recruiter.
5. Gets generic email which said “they needed a more experienced Enterprise/senior SDR”- that came out of left field which the Senior SDR Lead was the one who suggested I’d be more qualified for a senior SDR position and it was a remote position.
Teach your sales leaders to be transparent when interviewing candidates. I looked at his LinkedIn and was not impressed but him only hitting 91% of pipeline quota and he’s hitting 110% of quota. Talk to me when you’re hitting 120%-130% of your quota and get an actual selling role with your own territory.

The interview for the SDR role is simply reading off a script rather than asking actual relevant questions. It was very apparent that the intention of this interview was just to blow through generic questions without actually having a conversation on why the role would be a good fit. I learned nothing about the role from this interview.
