Recruiter reaches out on linkedin, calls you about 5 times unsolicited. Calls you 2 hours before the interview time to remind you about your interview.
Join the call, guy asks u to disconnect all ur monitors, show ur surroundings, gives you a question without understanding any javascript himself, doesn't say anything as you implement it, no feedback, nothing. Had the same experience with this company a year prior, got the same interviewer this time so it's clear they might only have this one terrible interviewer.
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Flexton in Dec 2025
Interview
I had a first-round technical interview through Flexton, and unfortunately it was by far one of the worst interview experiences I’ve had.
The problem itself was a standard LeetCode-style question and not particularly difficult. However, the interviewer’s behavior made the experience uncomfortable. He required me to share my entire screen and even questioned my default camera settings, asking me to open my laptop display settings, which felt unnecessarily invasive.
During the problem-solving portion, he repeatedly interrupted me with unsolicited comments. Less than five minutes in, he said I was “taking longer than expected.” Throughout the interview, I was trying to explain my thought process, but he completely ignored me and continued making condescending remarks such as “It’s been x minutes and you still haven’t solved it” and “Have you been practicing LeetCode?” These interruptions made it difficult to focus and created an adversarial atmosphere.
Overall, the interview felt extremely unprofessional and disrespectful. I hope Flexton reviews this feedback and improves the conduct and training of their interviewers.
In my experience, the sales interview process typically consists of multiple stages designed to assess a candidate's ability to sell, communicate, and handle objections effectively. It usually begins with an initial phone screening with a recruiter, where we discuss my experience, sales metrics, and compensation expectations. From there, I meet with the hiring manager for a deeper dive into my sales process, quota attainment, and approach to prospecting and closing deals. Many companies include a panel interview with sales leaders or team members to evaluate cultural fit and collaboration skills. A common step is a sales pitch or mock presentation, where I demonstrate my ability to sell the company’s product or service and handle objections in real time. The final round often involves senior leadership to ensure alignment with company goals. If successful, the process wraps up with reference checks and offer negotiations, including discussions on base salary, commission structure, and benefits.
