Thought it was fair, not too long and all relevant questions for an interview. Good dialogue and the follow up was pretty quick. Interviewed with both managers and BDRs to get the best information and perspective.
Ho presentato la mia candidatura online. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Proofpoint (Sydney) nel mese di feb 2026
Colloquio
First HR round—motivations for applying/ background overview
Second round with the marketing director- detailed discussion about the sales experience
Last round (mock call and case presentation) with the sales leader, sales director, and the marketing director
The HR was based in the UK and was not at all responsive in communications.
No actual feedback was given as compared to other organisations like HubSpot.
I had to follow up multiple times with HR to get a final decision, which eventually was a rejection.
They conducted all the rounds within 2 weeks and did not come up with the final decision for the next 3 weeks.
Domande di colloquio [1]
Domanda 1
Draft a mock cold email and present a mock cold call with a CISO for Coles Group.
Went through Pareto, and then interview with the senior BDR in which some of the questions were a bit weird but I was passed over because "I couldn't handle rejection"
