      Enterprise Account Executive Interview

      Mar 17, 2020
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Databricks in Feb 2020

      Interview

      Call with internal recruiter (IR) lasting about 45 mins. Confirmed next steps and if there were any reservations. IR confirmed there was none and that my experience and achievements to date match the requirements of the role and I will be put forward to next stage. After 1 week with no updates I chased the IR who mentioned the hiring manager was off skiing and would revert assap with next steps. Another 1.5 weeks passed and chased again. IR confirmed I would progress and but nothing confirmed. After a few more days the IR mentioned due to late stage interviews offers had been made! I expected more from a company like this and simple communication would have been sufficient. Clearly no control of the process and a farcical process at that!

      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Databricks (New York, KY) in Mar 2026

      Interview

      Not very good. Recruiter sent auto reply after a 1 hour interview and it felt like time wasted. I never got any feedback to know where it went wrong. I can’t say Im impressed.

      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Databricks (San Francisco, CA)

      Interview

      The hiring process was exceedingly long, arduous, and overly demanding, requiring unreasonable, extensive research and data preparation that should have been scope for the actual role. It was challenging to interpret virtually, featuring several tense, recorded one-on-one interviews, further disrupted by senior management no-shows at scheduled times. The overall environment felt perfunctory, leading me to believe they already had an internal candidate and were proceeding only for elimination or backup. Disturbingly, the final interview was held virtually in a large group setting—a decent format for a sales role with no mention of an in-person component. This included demands for super deep dives into technology areas, which typically require an engineering resource to provide credible data, putting the sales candidate in the awkward position of potentially having to speculate or "make things up." Furthermore, I observed signs of significant bias: the team was lacking in racial diversity (composed solely of individuals identifying as white/Caucasian) and made negative remarks in 1:1 meetings that suggested underlying ageism and racial factors, specifically targeting candidates from certain technology company or backgrounds.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Please describe Databricks' value proposition, explain its architectural differences from a competitor like Snowflake, and articulate the key competitive advantages that allow Databricks to win in the market.

      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Databricks

      Interview

      A very good process. Expectations were clearly set, I had 6 meetings. First meeting with recruiter, hiring manager, solutions architect, RVP, hiring manager again and finally with a presentation to 6 stakeholders. The entire process was about 4-6 weeks from initial meeting to offer.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Asked about the databricks application architecture. Be prepared to go 100-200 level deep, with a clear understanding of the application.
