I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at SiriusDecisions (Austin, TX) in Mar 2019
Interview
The interview process was fairly straight forward and they moved me forward quickly. There were clear cut expectations at each level, and the entire organization was very helpful at each step and setting up the next levels. The presentation was well thought out and there was plenty of support leading up to it. All in all one of the best experiences I've had with a company HR and the interviewing process. EX connected with HR with a different role earlier in the year and after a good discussion mutually agreed that role was not the best fit for me but recommended a better fit role, once role opened up in my area was very quick to respond and plug me into the interview process, only pausing to reconnect at my discretion to touch base on new developments and hiring goals. Hiring manager were very professional and friendly through out entire process, making it feel like a true two way interaction around fit. My recommendation do the work and be honest and it will become apparent if this the organization for you.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at SiriusDecisions (Wilton, CT)
Interview
This was a very thorough interview process. While I ended up having to meet with many people, it moved very quickly. I had to present how I would sell something to the group of sales managers and was asked questions. Overall, the experience was a bit intimidating, but I really enjoyed meeting with the members of the team.
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at SiriusDecisions (San Francisco, CA) in Jun 2017
Interview
Recruiter reached out to me initially after finding me on LinkedIn. Had two phone screens with recruiter and then the director, before going on-site for an in-person interview. The in-person interview consisted of a 30-minute presentation on one of the company's products followed by face-to-face conversations with a manager, director and one of the top reps on the AE team.
The overall experience was incredible. Recruiter and director helped prep for my presentation beforehand and I felt very comfortable coming into it. It can be very challenging for anyone who doesn't do their prep work ahead of time. My advice is to put effort into every step of the process and don't be afraid to ask for help.
People were awesome and that's why I ended up accepting my offer.
