I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Gong (Chicago, IL) in Sep 2023
Interview
The interview process at Gong has been a fantastic experience. I got the opportunity to speak with Austin King, who was an absolute pleasure to work with. Austin was knowledgeable about the role, and super passionate about the company. Not only did Austin provide valuable insights on the company, but also shared his passion for his role and why he chose a career at Gong. I wish all recruiters were as easy and amazing to work with - thank you Austin! I’ve also had the pleasure of speaking with Andrew, one of the Mid Market Managers at Gong. Andrew was truly inspirational, and great to speak with. He found success in the role that I interviewed for, and makes for a great leader for the team. All around this has been a wonderful experience, and seems like a great culture for anyone with the drive to be a successful Account Executive!

Interview
The job interviewer felt like they were just reading off a checklist and really didn't get me excited for the role when I was really excited to interview there. I hope they can try to be more personal on the first interview.

I applied through an employee referral. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Gong (San Francisco, CA) in Jul 2024
Interview
The Interview processes was straight forward and smooth. The recruiter I worked with was professional, responsive, and on top of each step of the process so I knew exactly where I stood and what to expect next. The process went something like recruiter screen, interview with the hiring manager, mock call with director of sales and hiring manager, and the final interview was with VP of Sales. The interviews were a healthy mix of casual getting to know you questions and behavioral questions focused on your work experience. The behavioral type of questions were more natural and conversation-like than some of the scripted "tell me about a time" questions I heard from other companies in my job search.
