The interview process was thorough, yet rewarding. My recruiter, Rae Hoffman, made the process feel really smooth and welcoming, and was on top of every little detail to make sure I had all the info I needed before each interview. They ask some tough questions but aren't looking for cookie cutter answers and really force you to think deeply about the company and your reason for joining.

Difficult interview
Application
I applied online. I interviewed at Gong (Chicago, IL) in May 2026
Interview
Interview process was great. Definetly competive as they want the best of the best. Be prepared as much as you possibly can. Definetly one of the better companies to work at.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Gong (San Francisco, CA) in Oct 2025
Interview
Interviewed with SDR manager, then other SDR manager for mock call, then final interview with a different SDR manager. All people were very nice. Interviews were pretty casual and standard. Gong has high expectations since it's a very competitive role, so take some time to prepare. Mock call was fun!

Interview
The interview process was four rounds. Phone screening, hiring manager, cold call exercise, and final round with another manager. The cold call exercise was a little intimidating initially, however, the manager gave great actionable feedback!
