I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at LinkedIn (San Francisco, CA) in May 2023
Interview
Hard to get interview unless you have a networking connection or a recruiter reaches out. Asked pretty specific STAR model questions. Moreover want someone with lots of sales experience. The recruiter was very personable and helpful.

Question 1
Where do you see yourself in the company in 5 years?
The interview process included an initial recruiter screening, followed by a hiring manager behavioral interview. The final round combined an additional behavioral interview with a SDR manager and a structured roleplay focused on discovery and objection handling.

Question 1
Tell me a time when you didn't work well with someone
The recruiter was nice and gave prep material before every stage of the interview process. I wasn't very investigative on the mock call. you have to keep asking why and getting the pain point of the client
Recruiter was great. Hiring managers were awful. I interviewed for the sdr position in NYC. Stay far away from the managers Patrick Ryan and Ruthie Smorto, complete idiots, possibly the most disrespectful interviewers I ever dealt with.
