I applied through other source. I interviewed at HubSpot
Interview
Spoke to Hubspot's head recruiter about the position via phone after first reaching out over LinkedIn Inmail. The guy was a total hot shot, and one of the rudest people in HR I've ever spoken to at any company. I'm thankful that the recruiter took the time to speak with me, but the continual put downs, sarcasm, and multiple breaks during our call so he could write emails, was extremely unprofessional and completely changed my image of Hubspot (which I had a ton of respect for prior).
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Recruiter is EXTREMELY metric driven. Make sure you can rattle off your stats- closing rate, turnover rate, etc. Even if you aren't held to metrics in your current position, do the math and make sure you can talk the talk.
I applied online. I interviewed at HubSpot (Las Vegas, NV) in Oct 2025
Interview
The initial screening interview was fine — they just asked common “tell me about a time when…” scenarios, and the interviewer was friendly. The second interview is a one-hour, two-part role play (chat and phone call). They have hundreds of knowledge base articles, but you have no idea what scenario to prepare for, so it’s pretty difficult to do well unless you spend hours every day prepping. If you do manage to get past this portion, you still have 3–4 more interviews before receiving an offer.

Question 1
Tell me about a time you went above and beyond for a customer
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at HubSpot in Aug 2025
Interview
Terrible.
Recruiter gave me questions to prepare for with the hiring manager and then none of those questions were asked having me feel unprepared.
Also gave me ridiculous feedback about not answering a question exactly to their liking as to why they passed on me.
Said I did well otherwise, but applied again and immediately got declined.
Joke of a company and recruiting team.

Question 1
Tell me about a difficult customer and how you resolved it
I had a first-round interview for a sales role, but unfortunately, the experience fell short of expectations. The recruiter did not seem well-prepared for the conversation — their English level made communication difficult, and they weren’t able to clearly explain the role or speak about the company in an engaging way.
As a candidate, I came in genuinely excited about the opportunity and had done a lot of preparation. However, the conversation felt surface-level and unstructured, and it didn’t give me a clear view of what working at the company would be like.out of the interaction. I hope the process improves, especia
I would have preferred a written Q&A or even a chatbot to get more value lly for a company that positions itself around great customer and user experiences.
