I applied online. I interviewed at KnowBe4 (Clearwater, FL) in Dec 2016
Interview
Phone interview. Then in person interview with a Sales Director and HR Director where they ask you to role play. Then take an aptitude and IQ test as well as a 200 question personality test. Then meet the CFO.
This was several years ago and that is no longer the process. We hope if you see an opportunity that you apply again and experience a much more refined KB4. :)

I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at KnowBe4 (Clearwater, FL) in Jan 2023
Interview
Very quick interview process - 1st phone screen to the offer lasted one week. Pretty standard interview process which included role play with a VP of Sales that was a good challenge. The sales managers are not included in their usual interview process, and a recruiter was always involved on calls which I found odd. Declined to several factors - including that it's a heavy cold call intensive job and got the strong vibe of it being a very micromanaged sales environment. In addition - appears deeply tied to a certain org that operates in that downtown area. Could be a good opportunity if you are into all of that - not for me.
