I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Sprout Social (Chicago, IL) in Nov 2016
Interview
By far, this was the most efficient and pleasant interview process EVER. The Sprout team was thoughtful, intelligent, extremely nice, and really handled the process with class.
I filled out the application, and was contacted by the recruiter within 24 hours. We had a nice phone conversation, followed by an interview with a manager the following week over the phone. Third interview with the SVP of Sales (cut into 2 sessions) and the final step was in person interviews in Chicago (they flew me there) with 5 other team members, 30-45 minute sessions with each.

The entire process was very pleasant. My recruiter was very prompt in following up after every round, providing feedback and updates. She constantly checks in to ensure I have a smooth and enjoyable interview process. The team at Sprout was very open and transparent, and the great company culture definitely shines through. It was one of the best interview experiences, with great momentum throughout.
The interview process is seamless and everyone is very friendly and welcoming. I truly appreciate the sprout team making me feel valued as a candidate and that warm culture is what made me choose Sprout.

Interview
There were four rounds of interviews. The first round was screening with the TA, followed by two rounds with the hiring manager and then a panel presentation with the hiring manager's boss and a peer.
It was not difficult; they wanted to see your thought process on how you outbound, manage your territory, your wins/losses, and what you learn from it. Some questions were asked about the nuances of their industry, and if you are not from Martech, you might find it challenging. The TA team based out of Ireland was very helpful.
