Phone screening, interview.
I applied at Podium about a year ago and couldn’t be happier that I passed up the opportunity. I applied to a position outside of the sales department originally. When I was in my 3rd interview I was told I needed more sales experience and I should apply as an SDR.
Fast forward a couple months later and I applied to the SDR position as I was encouraged to. After the phone screening I was invited to interview. The manager I interviewed with sucked. Before he even started the interview he told me because I applied to a different position a couple months before he knew I wasn’t serious about this.
Fast forward 1 year later and I’m killing it as an SDR at a different company with a better product, culture, and benefits. Getting to know the industry better, I’ve learned how lucky I am to have not gotten this job. Their average turnover is 3 months for a reason.
