      Sales Engineer Interview

      Feb 25, 2015
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at CloudLock

      Interview

      Add Cloudlock to the list of companies looking for a "purple squirrel" to do all kinds of disparate, disconnected skills that simple do not exist in one person. Someone who has experience as a solution architect - who can also speak to c level executives who are non technical and has driven, sales focused attitude. Yeah, good luck with that. Guys who can code are a different breed than type A personalities who are out front selling things, meeting and greeting etc. Two totally different people - Cloudlock wants you to be proficient at both. A good Sales Engineer understand technical concepts enough to translate client / customer needs to the Dev team - and is at heart a SALESPERSON - not a Techy. Sorry. Maybe this is why there are Sales Engineer roles that have been open here since last summer. If your profile on match.com hasnt gotten you a date in 9 months, time to change your approach and add some more reasonable expectations.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Tell me about yourself - is NOT a useful or insightful question.

      Appreciate the feedback. We sometimes feel like we are setting the bar too high, but we also fundamentally believe that the difference between great and exceptional is worth the time and investment in finding what for us is that exceptionality. CloudLock definitely isn't for everybody, that's why we try to get to know people beyond their resume and work milestones, to understand what makes them tick, and what will motivate them to be exceptional. We're thankful that you took the time to explore a fit with us, and that you took the time to give us this feedback. - Gil Zimmermann
