My interview experience with ElevenLabs was, unfortunately, one of the worst I've had in a while. During my initial screening call, they joined more than five minutes late without acknowledging the delay or offering any introductions before jumping straight into interview questions. Throughout the conversation, they repeatedly yawned and appeared disengaged, showing little interest in learning about my background or discussing the role. It seemed like they were asking questions for their own entertainment and had an extremely pretentious attitude. What made this especially disappointing is that I was genuinely excited about ElevenLabs and the product. Based on my experiences, I hope the company invests in improving its recruiting process, as it is often a candidate's first impression of the company, and unfortunately, mine did not reflect the innovative brand that ElevenLabs has built.

Interview
I recently had the pleasure of interviewing for the Account Executive role at ElevenLabs, and I was incredibly impressed. It was one of the best interview experiences I've had. The process was exceptionally fast, which I really appreciated. The team moved with a velocity that showcased their efficiency without sacrificing the quality of the interactions.
The interviews were very well-structured. They truly focused on testing my business acumen and technical understanding, which showed they were looking for a candidate who was not only a sales professional but also deeply understood their product and the AI space. Every single person I spoke with was a true legend in their field. Their passion and expertise were contagious and made me even more excited about the prospect of joining the team.
A major highlight was the final interview with Mati, the CEO. It speaks volumes that he takes the time to personally interview every Account Executive candidate. It gave me a great sense of the company's culture and his commitment to building a high-caliber team. The entire process left me with a strong feeling that ElevenLabs is a place where you can be surrounded by brilliant, enthusiastic, and highly motivated people. I was thrilled to accept the offer.
Thank you for the elaborate write-up. The CEO interview being meaningful at the end of an AE process is good signal for us. The depth of care you put into this review reads back warmly.
Welcome, glad we got there.

Interview
Heads up! They say remote first but they're heavily prioritizing hiring sales roles based in SF and NY hubs. The first question I was asked was about my location (neither hub) and the interviewer was clearly disinteresed and seemed annoyed. They tried ending the interview after 15 mins. It's a great company/product, but just something to consider so you dont waste your time or the company's time if you're not in SF/NY or willing to relocate right now.
Thank you for the constructive flag. The interview ending after 15 minutes is concrete - not the experience we want any candidate to leave with. If you would like to talk through your specific experience, please reach out.
Thank you for taking the time.
