My interview experience was very smooth and positive. The entire process stretched a little over 3 weeks. Given that they are a fairly young company, I appreciated their due diligence in selecting the best candidate they could to jumpstart their marketing initiatives and team. I spoke extensively with several senior members of the team including their co-founders, VP of Sales, COO as well as several members of their engineering and sales team. The entire team was very friendly, approachable and helpful and the communication between myself and the founders was consistent and open. My interviews with members at Pepperdata was more of a collaborative conversation and brainstorm session, which made my ideas feel appreciated and respected. They didn't reject ideas but rather, embraced big thinking and creativity. It was great to learn how passionate they were on becoming a disruptive technology in the Big Data space. Although I ended not accepting the offer, Pepperdata is off to a great start and I am excited to see them as a big name in big data.
