4 parts. 1/4 initial screen with recruiter - easy! 2/4 with the head of SDR 3/4 with an SDR 4/4 a presentation given by you to two executives. The presentation takes awhile to prepare but is not that hard. You can use Chat to assist you and help research. One of the interviewers was quite boring and seemed disinterested in what I had to say.

Question 1
Presentation: find two hot accounts and do a deep dive into how grafanas software will help them. Then find someone from that company to reach out to and do a fake cold call to them.
Few rounds, nice people. Did not have enough experience in the field so I did not qualify but they were good people. Must have technical knowledge of the product, and the ability to sell (obviously)
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Grafana Labs in Oct 2023
Interview
Received an invitation to schedule a first round interview a little about a week after applying. Upon looking at the schedule calendar, however, I noticed there were no open slots for at least a week. This caused the process to move a bit slower than I would have liked. The interview was brief in duration and the questions were relatively straight forward. I thought it was odd that the interviewer kept their camera off though. Don't really see the point of a Zoom interview if you aren't using the camera. Might as well have been a phone call. I thought I did okay overall, but apparently I wasn't what they were looking for. Kind of annoyed that I spent a lot of time researching the company just to receive another rejection letter, but I guess I just wasn't the right fit.

Question 1
Can you walk me through your background? Why Grafana? Why sales?
