I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Ramp in Oct 2023
Interview
Have interviewed with 15+ companies in the last 2 months and this was my worst interview experience by a stretch (unfortunately, because this company is special and growing very fast). Interviewed in 2nd round by a recently promoted sales manager with less than 1.5 years of sales experience total. Seemed careless and unenthusiastic to be on the call. Showed up 10 minutes late. Camera off ('wifi bad in the office'). Asked me basic questions, answers followed by long cold pauses, not conversational, no feedback. Briefly opened it up for questions, didn't have answers to 2 which I asked, and then cut me off from further questions to challenge my experience further. I'm certain this company will continue to do well but this process should be facilitated by more personable/tenured employees. Left me with a bad taste in my mouth.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
How will you exceed the quota? How will you differentiate? What is unique about you as a salesperson? What will you do differently during our ramp period?
Quick process and the hiring team was very helpful and responsive. 5 rounds seemed like a lot but was ultimately very smooth and the business case was very straightforward. Overall I was very happy with how the whole process went.
Started with AI did not feel very personable and felt that there were disadvantages. Cool company, but seems they may not be looking there. Feels like there needs to be a lot to align in order for this to work. Probably a high-intensity environment.
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Ramp (New York, NY)
Interview
Similar to how everyone described. They care more about vibes and intelligence level instead of focusing on your experiences. Just be personable and come prepared. It is essential to be very well-versed in the product and company.
