      Sales Development Program Interview

      2 Mar 2024
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Gartner

      Interview

      This was truly the most bizarre interview process I have ever been apart of and made me question the integrity and professionalism of the company. First round - phone call with recruiter, very positive and chill. Ran through some practice questions and gained feedback before the next round interview. After the phone call, she sent me an email of thinks to prep before the interview which I found to be odd in the amount of assistance I was being provided for just an interview. The next interview was when things got quite bizarre. To begin, the recruiter was late to our call and then arrived in a t-shirt, looking extremely unprofessional. The interview ran exactly how I was prepared for it to go via all the notes that I was given from the initial recruiter. However, the person interviewing me lacked the ability to connect how my answers were applicable to sales. It appeared if I didn't use very specific words in my answer than she wasn't satisfied. She even asked for me to define a word that I used in my interview because she was unsure what it meant. Overall, an interview that couldn't have ended sooner and left a negative taste in my mouth of the company. Keep in mind, I only applied for the position because I was approached on LinkedIn from someone and thought may as well go through the interview process.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Why do you want to work in sales? Tell me about a time you influenced the decision of a leader. Tell me about a time that you received challenging/specific feedback Tell me about time you ran into a personal or professional setback. How did you overcome it? Tell me about a time you had to make quick decision/ Tell me about a time you learned something quickly on the fly with little to no prior knowledge. Tell me about a time you had to own up to a mistake
