      SDR Interview

      11 Feb 2020
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Fairfield, CA
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Gong (Fairfield, CA) in Feb 2020

      Interview

      They originally reached out to me and showed interest. After trying to do a couple follow ups no one responded. Really disappointed as I was hoping to excel and sharpen my sales skills since I am new to the industry.

      I'm really sorry to hear this. Not sure if you were working with an internal recruiter or an external agency but regardless, this is not the type of candidate journey Gong ever wants to provide. We're currently building out our team internally to avoid this from happening in the future but we clearly missed the mark with you. I'd love to connect with you, take you to lunch/coffee and give you the shot we should have given you the first time. Please add me on LinkedIn or shoot an email to eric.lindroos@gong.io and we can can go from there. Thank you for surfacing this learning moment for us as well. Kindly, Eric Lindroos

      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Positive experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Gong

      Interview

      There are multiple rounds from recruiter, manager, mock cold call, then program manager. I felt like my recruiter provided quick and easy information but very difficult for an entry level position, I feel like mock cold call expectations were excessively high

      SDR Interview

      14 Dec 2020
      Anonymous interview candidate
      San Francisco, CA
      No offer
      Neutral experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Gong (San Francisco, CA)

      Interview

      The recruiters did a good job of preparing me for each interview with enough info and guidance. Good communication overall. Lots of situation type questions as well as a sales mock call. However, is there really need to be 6 rounds of interviews for an entry level SDR job? This is really excessive for a bottom of totem pole role. 6 rounds over a course of a month if really a manager or director level interview process I think. In the end, didn’t get an offer as I’m probably competing with 200 other people who might be stronger candidates.

      I'm glad to hear you enjoyed your experience, although a bit longer than expected :) We take hiring very seriously and our SDR's are the face of our company. We realize the process has a lot of steps and we're currently working on streamlining things to enable us to scale. This feedback validates our thinking and will help drive us in the right direction. Thank you!
