Zoom interview, but I could tell from the beginning there was something, a hard skill, I was missing so they were not really interested. I am not sure what the tool or skill was...

Really disappointed with my experience with Gong, I use their product and think it’s great. I didn’t officially apply for the role but was contacted by the recruiter for an exploratory chat. After a couple of questions around my background, the recruiter immediately decided that I should be put forward for a less senior role despite my experience and I didn’t get a chance to ask a few questions and the recruiter said they had to run and could only answer 1. Although I didn’t officially apply, I received a rejection email which I find insulting especially as this was meant to be an exploratory chat.

Spent 30 minutes talking to the recruiter, who started the conversation by saying "your current company uses Gong, so I don't have to tell you about us" and then diving into asking me questions. Considering the job market and options that employees have, the lack of even attempting to tell me what's so great about Gong was offsetting. It was almost the attitude of "we're great and I shouldn't have to sell you; everyone should want to work here". I was also asked 3 different times in 30 minutes how many accounts/how much ARR I manage, which made it seem like the recruiter wasn't even paying attention. Set up the next call to meet with the hiring manager, but I ended up canceling because the experience was lackluster.
