4 interviews: 1) hiring manager 2) hiring manager and there manager 3) demo with someone on the team 4) demo with a group of people The entire process took about a month and was challenging to present on zoom in front of a group of people.

Five month process with a referral already on the inside. Several red flags along the way, mostly with the coordinator sending weekend texts (from his IPad) to set up the interviews and then giving only three days to prepare a 20-30 minute slide presentation. Once giving the presentation being broken and immediately discarded for not knowing more about their brand of cloud sales. Sometimes being interviewed by the 25 year veteran of the company is a non-starter; just too set in his ways and not interested in putting time in to mentoring fantastic subordinates. In my opinion it is a company's responsibility to train their employees all about their product line so you are an effective sales engineer/person. This was even more of a surprise since I was told I would be judged by my presentation skills and ability to author the materials, not by the technical mistakes. To be fair I made a few, but was also told I would be "on-boarded for at least 6 to 8 months before I would be "certified" to present alone. I assume that time would be teaching me where I made the mistakes and how to properly represent the product. I'm upset and disappointed that I not only didn't get the job, but destroying how I look at the professionalism of the 2nd largest software company.
