I recently interviewed with King Energy, and while every person I spoke with was genuinely friendly, the overall experience raised some serious red flags. It became clear pretty quickly that the team didn’t have a firm grasp on what they were looking for in the role. Answers to basic questions about expectations, training, and day-to-day responsibilities were vague or inconsistent across interviewers.
The lack of a clear onboarding or training process was also concerning. For a sales role—especially one that supposedly expects strong experience—you’d think they’d have something structured in place. Instead, it felt like they were building the plane mid-flight and hoping candidates wouldn’t notice.
The whole experience had the unmistakable feel of an early-stage startup with all the typical startup issues: disorganization, unclear direction, and “figure it out as you go” energy. That may work for some people, but if you’re an experienced salesperson looking for a company with real support, structure, and a defined path to success, I’d recommend looking elsewhere.
