I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Common Room (San Francisco, CA) in Aug 2024
Interview
My first interview was with a sales leader who had only been with the company for eight days. He focused entirely on asking highly detailed and challenging questions about the software and platform, without showing any interest in my background or how my experience could be relevant to Common Room. He even mentioned that if I wasn’t passionate about GTM strategy software, I wouldn’t be a good fit. I was told I didn’t advance to the next round, but a week later, a recruiter reached out to schedule another interview. However, after sending calendar invites, they abruptly canceled them."

Why are you interested in Common Room?
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Common Room (New York, NY) in Jan 2025
Interview
Recruiter screening and then Manager interview. Chris was not a great interviewer and made me feel incredibly uncomfortable. I didn't get moved forward but honestly glad I didn't. Technology seems okay, they have a few big customers. Interview process seemed similar to other AE interviews.
