In the end, the CRO Ken Chow was beyond abrasive. As a female in tech who has survived a sexual assault in the workplace, I was extremely put off by the CRO repeatedly bringing up genitalia in my third interview - some may call it cussing but to me it is a lot more. He mentioned his favorite book was called NO anuses (except he actually said the cuss word and glassdoor won't let me) and then he told me he'd mail it to me... And yes I get that it is a customer service type of book but I am an operations person who specializes in automation and EMS/CRM support so to me, there is 0 reason to bring that inflammatory title up in a formal interview especially when you didn't ask me anything specific to coding, SFDC, any other CRMs etc. In referencing a sexualized body part via a book title, Mr Chow was able to sexualize my interview without getting in trouble - whether he was aware or not. So if you are asking about the process… The hardest part was having Mr Chow seemingly gauge my reaction on screen to heinous words and crassness with an “If she can't hang tough, she's not for us…” type of ‘tude. Classic patriarchy folks! He could def use a trauma class or 6.
