2 hr interview + role play. Very result oriented and hard to handle if you don’t know the services even tho they say its not necessary.

Wow, intense interview process, but the recruiter was incredibly helpful. I’ve never felt so strongly before that the recruiter was my advocate. I was never in the dark about next steps or what they were looking for. I had four rounds, with two of those including a role play of a sales conversation.
