Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Datadog (Boston, MA)
Colloquio
I was contacted for an initial phone screening conducted by a member of the Talent Acquisition team. The purpose of this conversation was to assess the candidate's interest in the role, review their relevant experience, and provide more information about the position and company.

Tell me about yourself. What interests you about the Sales Development Representative role at Datadog? Why are you interested in pursuing a career in sales? Can you describe any previous sales or customer-facing experience you have had? How do you approach cold calling or reaching out to prospects for the first time? How do you handle objections from potential customers during a sales conversation? Have you had experience working with sales tools such as CRM systems? Which ones have you used before? How do you stay organized and manage your time effectively in a fast-paced sales environment? Can you share a specific example of a successful sales outreach or lead generation experience you had in the past? How do you prioritize your leads or prospects when managing a large volume of potential customers?

First Round - 30 mins zoom call with Recruiter - Camera on. Pretty simple, they’re just screening you to see if you are the right fit. Understand that you need solid answers that reply to the question in detail. Have them learned off perfectly. I’m disappointed I didn’t get the role as I have an abundant amount of sales experience but I guess not enough technical software knowledge but then it makes you think.. This is a sales role, not a software engineer role so I’m assuming they’re looking for a Unicorn who has both sales and tech skills. Overall it was quick. Second round Cold Calling Role play in person. Final Round Conversation with Director. Overall lovely experience but be prepared.

3 Rounds
first round with hiring manager - quite basic, behavioral/fit intended questions
second sales case/exercise with 2 account execs + some behavioral questions (probably toughest)
Third Round - final interview with the senior manager, can be pushy

rejected after recruiter round. The recruiter round was mainly about interest in the company and why sales. Only one behavioral question was asked. I thought I did well but apparently not because I didn't make it past the first round. It's such a shame because I am a big fan of their product and when they asked what their company does, I talked for so long because there was so much to talk about
