The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at ZoomInfo
Interview
The initial director was great. The second round was back to back to back interviews.
The first person came on and made so many assumptions about my candidacy (uphill battle for me, etc). That’s fine if you want to approach the process like that, but not for me.
The second person never showed.
The third asked if I just spoke to the second person. I said he never showed. Instead of apologizing, he simply said “OK, let’s begin.”
Pretty bad experience and the culture reminds me of something like Boiler Room. Sent email to recruiter to withdraw later that day. Guess they had better candidates.
I applied online. I interviewed at ZoomInfo (London, England)
Interview
Initial screen with recruiter was very friendly but based in the US. Then the next stage was not with a hiring manager. No introduction into what they did within the business and had to dig. Asked questions about how i thought they perceived me, and proceeded to tell me i seemed competent which to take as a compliment.. Referred himself as Ted lasso and boasted about achievements which was not expected. Said the team would be in touch in the afternoon and did not follow up until i nudged the recruiter. Off putting process.

Question 1
Deal cycle and timeframes of closing, deal value etc
Interview was regarding prior experiences, what methodology was followed in my existing and prior organisations and what would be followed at Zoominfo.
Further interview scheduling was a mess, and it made sense when I read the reviews of how culture is at the Chennai office. Having also spoken to a few people who had worked there, good thing I didn't spend time and effort on this.
