      Account Executive Interview

      Jan 25, 2019
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      Irvine, CA
      No offer
      Negative experience

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Houzz (Irvine, CA)

      Interview

      Please do not reach out to candidates and waste their time scheduling interviews to message them on LinkedIn 15 minutes past start times saying you need to reschedule...then take over a day to say you already scheduled other people at the times you are available. Extremely unprofessional of a “senior recruiter” to treat an candidate that their apparent senior director was impressed with.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Didn’t even make it to this due to poor scheduling/response rate of the “senior recruiter” (who has never recruited according to their LinkedIn and has been onboard for 2 months).

      Thank you for your valuable feedback. We take our candidate experience very seriously at Houzz, but obviously missed the mark with yours. We apologize and would like to make it up to you, if you have interest. Please do not hesitate to reach out to me directly to be scheduled with a member of our recruiting leadership team at your earliest convenience. - Susan Ferguson, Director of Talent Acquisition - Industry Solutions (susan.ferguson@houzz.com)

      Difficult interview

      Application

      I interviewed at Houzz (Berlin)

      Interview

      Great company to work for. They have a stringent hiring process. You will have multiple interviews followed by a presentation at the end. All in all they want to see if you understand their platform and user mentality. Big props if you show your personality or if you have a positive attitude it will go a long way. It was definitely gruelling but totally fair as the job itself is quit full on.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Why Houzz? Why sales? You don't seem like a salesperson.. (I don't). Very blunt but direct.

      I interviewed at Houzz

      Interview

      Houzz places a large emphasis on role playing in the interview process, both for external and internal roles. It's daunting in the moment but is actually good practice and gives interviewers a good sense of how you think on your feet

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Are you comfortable making 100+ outbound phonecalls a day?

      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Houzz (Fresno, CA) in Dec 2021

      Interview

      It was very through and you really got a great idea of the position, it was multiple levels finishing up with a mock sales call to really get an idea of the process

      Question 1

      They asked me what qualities make me a great salesperson
