I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Deel in Jun 2023
Interview
Interview process took 3 weeks. It was a very quick process. First interview was with the recruiter which was very generic. Second interview was with the hiring manager and the 3rd was with the Sales Director. Every conversation was 90% the same about the overall experience, outbound strategy, sales skills etc.
During the interview, I was asked to identify my areas for improvement and confirm my status as a high performer. Additionally, I was asked which two tools I would choose to utilize in my role.
Overall, the product appears sound; however, I identified several red flags during the process which I want to share:
Ramp-up Concerns: The ramp-up period offers guaranteed pay for the first month, followed by a 33% target in the second month and 66% in the third. This is concerning given the sales cycles exceeds three months, which has been mentioned.
Commission Structure: Accelerators do not kick in until the quota is achieved across all "buckets."
Pricing Friction: Selling hardware is reportedly challenging due to the significant price premium of Deel IT compared to standard market vendors. This pricing gap becomes even more complex when dealing with larger volumes for enterprise.
SMB Account Executive INTERVIEW Respectfull process , nice recruiter, two interviews. Didnt receive an offer .
The hiring manager mentioned that i lack of expereince with c- levels . Not sure what he meant ..
I met with a recruiter and with very standard line of questioning. Some of the questions were very vague about how I go about process management, relationships, etc. when I asked for specifics, it wasn’t thoroughly explained. Pretty low base compensation compared to their competitors and current market rate as someone with senior level experience.
