The interview process We want to ensure you are set-up for success and understand what will be expected of you. If your application is successful, our interview process is as follows:
- Intro call: A 30-minute chat with our Talent Partner to discuss the role and your background.
- Hiring Manager Call: 45 mins to meet with Sales leadership, here they will look to discuss your experience and relevance in greater detail. Understanding strengths and weaknesses.
- Pleo Challenge: A 60 mins, here we look to dive deeper. This interview will be split into 2 sections 30 min mock Discovery Call, and a 15 min Pleo presentation as an Account Executive with 15 min Q&A.
Transparency is important to us so we also wanted to share some insights about what we're looking for in applications to ensure you can set yourself up for success! Last time we hired an Account Executive, we received a total of 120 applications but only 15 were selected for an intro call. Some of the key reasons why previous candidates didn't make it past the application screening stage include:
- CV writing and content: we receive a lot of CVs, and many of them are AI-generated. We love seeing people leverage AI - it's a big focus for us internally too - but without human intervention, these CVs can sometimes become generic and fail to show a candidate in the best light. What we're really looking for is the specific details of real impact that only you know from your previous experience. A top tip from us is to use the "Achieved X, as measured by Y, by doing Z" formula (credit: Laszlo Bock, ~2014) to give a really clear picture of what you've worked on. A final note: including links to your previous companies' websites is a huge help and allows us to truly understand your background!
- Application care: every single application we receive is reviewed by a human (yes, hundreds of them) because we believe that candidates' efforts should be matched by an equal level of human care. This means that we expect a similar level of attention put into your application. Read and answer the application questions carefully, they make a huge difference in our decision-making process.
- Profile to role fit: highlight most important aspects of the role, points that might get misunderstood, any specific industry requirements etc.
