      Management - Sales and Marketing Interview

      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at FirstRain (Foster City, CA) in Nov 2008

      Interview

      First interview with staffing agency Second interview was on phone about background Onsite interview was with several people one on one and sometimes 2 from a variety of team leads - product, marketing, sales. Was asked to wait for a few minutes to talk to CEO. 6 hours into the whole interview, met with CEO who seemed really snobby and judgemental about my big company backround and how much time would be required to do a good job in their start up. Oddly enough, Sarah Palin came up as a topic and she railed on her and of course, I skipped comment - did not think it was appropriate for interview. She did not like that I was 'too careful' and said so. I left knowing she would not give me the job if I was not the type of person to bare my opinions and stances in the interview :-). Too bad because she would have been great fun over a beer.
