I applied online. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Gigya (Mountain View, CA) in Oct 2015
Interview
The interview started an email from HR to schedule a 25min phone call with the the manager. Next was an interview at the office with the manager, sales team manager and top sales rep. The interview took about 45minutes, which included questions about background experience, goals, and an in-office role play exercise. The exercise consisted of writing an outreach email to an enterprise VP to secure an appointment for a sales demo, as well as making a phone call to secure an appointment with a VP, while handling the objections.
I applied online and after a week and a half, had not heard anything. I emailed them at the generic jobs email address posted on their website, and someone reached out within a few days. I completed two phone screens, one 18 minutes long and the second took closer to 30 minutes. At the end of the second phone screen, I was told that I should hear within two days about next steps, but was never contacted. Even though I have followed up with the HR Coordinator that scheduled the calls, I have not heard anything.

Interview

It seemed like the person was hammering away trying to hear me slip up. After reading some of the reviews for this company, I realized I'm glad that I didn't get the job...

Question 1
1 being intelligent and 10 being hardworking, where you fall? Question doesn't make much sense if you have any knowledge of mathematics, but I said 3 because the more knowledgeable you are, the less you must work...
