The lack of questions were the most surprising aspect of this interview

How do you feel about making 100 cold calls per day?
2 Answers↳
this isn't a question to test your strategy. this was a question to see if you are actually going to make 100 cold calls per day, because that is what your job is going to be... regardless if you agree with that strategy or not, you're going to make 100 "dials" each and every day. Less

I would feel like I am not sufficiently preparing for my calls if I'm making 100 calls per day. Why am I not having better conversations? Am I not reaching the right people? Is my strategy not correct? I would say that making 50-60 calls with valuable contact on about 20 should be a good goal for me to grow my business. If I'm not making those 20 value contacts, that obviously my total call number would go up. But overall I feel like if I'm making 100 calls I'm not spending a lot of time actually bringing value to my clients, which is what I need to do to grow my business. Less
Was asked if I had a personal relationship with the CIO of one company in a huge territory.
2 Answers↳
I applied to new relic and had a very positive interview with the HR person was moved on to the next round of interviews . Had a positive interview with Manager and was told that I would move forward for a position in another state. I informed them that I had applied for a job in my home state that was advertised on Linkedin not in the State of Washington. Was told sorry but the job was posted ion the rocky MT area but they were looking for someone in State of Washington. It Seems that the negative reviews posted on Glassdoor are correct about New Relic. Less

I was honest and said I had relationships at lower level DIR, VP etc. and have sold into this company in the past. I reiterate to the hiring manager that I was applying for a territory position not a specific named account position and their reply was well it sort of is but they turned it back on the HR team that they need to do a better job of screening canidates. I spent many hours prepping for this interview and my time was wasted. Less
