I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at KnowBe4 in Jan 2023
Interview
Did not managed to pass the first role play interview. The first role play is to do a discovery sales process, finding more information from the customer before you invite them for a demo.
Was kind of caught off guard to have the hiring manager ask me to pitch their products in mandarin after the role play. Would be helpful if they state that mandarin speaking is mandatory in their job description, so the interviewees can be prepared.
It was as all interview processes should be. It was very straightforward and reasonable. The recruiter(s) were very responsive, stuck to their dates and set up for success. The feedback was candid and specific. The process was excellent and the people were very easy to work with and honest about where one stands.

Interview
Shelby and Val were exceptional. The interview process reflects all the positive stuff I'm seeing about the company: welcoming, efficient, and detail-oriented.
Obviously, each round was more challenging than the last but I appreciate how thorough they are. They're not out to play "gotcha" so if you prepare and are a good fit, go in confidently.
Application to offer took 15 days.
I got welcome texts from the VP and Director minutes after accepting my offer. I couldn't be more excited to start here!
