Ho presentato la mia candidatura tramite un selezionatore. La procedura ha richiesto 3 settimane. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso IBM (Philadelphia, PA) nel mese di giu 2008
Colloquio
Five separate f2f interviews-
Technical interview
Peer interview (2x)
Manager interview (technical sales manager)
Manager interview (sales team manager)
Communications were very good. Initial offer was reasonable, final offer was only $1k higher. No real flexibility in developing a package for non-executive level positions - ie "All employees receive 3 weeks of vacation when hired, no exceptions" and "IBM does not offer stock options until successful completion of 6 months employment and meeting performance goals". Each interview was really a separate event; it did not seem like anyone communicated from one to the next; many similar questions, covered the sales plan several times, etc.
Seem very regimented. The idea of a 40 hour work week is unrealistic in sales, and there are no rules of engagement for when to pursue an opportunity and when to engage a partner, etc.
I would recommend getting a VERY CLEAR desciption of the "average week / average month", either in writing or take good notes. Then, when you are being asked to work yet another Saturday because "you were hired to do a job, not put in hours" you can refresh their memory about how an average week would be 45-50 hours. They do not tell you about all the expectations, and once you start you are pretty much on your own. Ask about getting a mentor whose bonus compensation is tied to the same goals as your bonus.
Domande di colloquio [2]
Domanda 1
Role play your reaction to an extremely irate customer - where we need to fix a problem before we can close a large deal.
Then they start yelling. For real.

After the documents were accepted, there were some assignments, including written work and a presentation/project style work. Once these were reviewed there was a final interview. The whole process took about 2 months.

There was one online interview that took a while to hear a response back from. After that interview, I had two more Zoom Call interviews with managers across IBM and that was it.
