The interview process started off solid, but it went downhill fast once I met the hiring manager and VP of Sales. The conversation felt like a waste of time. A lot of the questions didn’t really matter, and they kept going on about “culture” and the “perfect fit,” which honestly just felt like buzzwords. What really stood out was how unprofessional it felt. The hiring manager was on his phone. It set a bad tone right away. There was no talk about coaching, training, or how they actually support reps, just pressure about high expectations and big goals. That’s not exciting; it’s a red flag. Recruiters are AMAZING thouugh.

Engaging interview process. Ended up going a different route but enjoyed the conversations. They asked questions related to prior sales experience. They also asked about times you've overcame challenges or adversity in life. It's a startup so they want self starters and competitive types.

I went through 2 steps -1 Recruiter phone screen -1 Directly with Sales Manager -Had I proceeded, an in person mock-call would've taken place in their downtown Denver office. Recruiter was super kind and had a nice convo. She'd been with Engine for a few months. The manager had been there about a month and was clearly new. It was interesting- nice guy with some nice conversation and could tell a lot about the company, They're looking for someone who can close a lot of short-cycle sales and does a lot of outreach, They said about 50 calls per day believe. I couldn't get clarity on the commission structure- given it's a free platform. They're in the office everyday pretty much in downtown Denver, and doesn't sound like a lot of flexibility with that. Everyone kind of sits on one floor from what I could see. Clearly rapidly growing and I would guess they want to sell in a couple of years. 70K base is what they offered. I get the sense of a high churn, just based off the tenure of people I connected with and found on Linked In. Seems like you hit your quota or you're gone without much leash.
