Question 1
Since I had no previous sales experience, the interviewer asked me to conduct sales myself, and I agreed to the role play. I think it would be a good idea for those who have no sales history but want to change their career to sales to keep this in mind.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Salesforce (Chicago, IL) in May 2024
Interview
Two recruiter calls -> on-site interview. I was given the offer shortly after the on-site interview.
I had previous BDR experience, so I talked about that. I prepped ahead of time by writing down some times I overcame a challenge at work.
