I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Box (Austin, TX) in Mar 2017
Interview
I was initially contacted by a recruiter and had a prelim. phone screen. I was then referred to a sales recruiter who was my point of contact throughout the process. I had an interview onsite, where I met with two AEs and a manager. During my second onsite, I prepared a 30/60/90 presentation with the VP of Sales. I had a third onsite visit with my would-be manager, followed by a final phone interview with the new Director. Lots of interviews - but, they're building out the Emerging team in Austin, and I appreciated that they wanted feedback from so many different levels. The sales recruiter was fantastic, and kept me updated every step of the way. Overall, I truly enjoyed the experience - it was transparent and thorough. I really feel like they evaluate for the best possible fit.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Focus on sales process/style (how you currently run your business, how that aligns with Box process)
Why Box?
Very inconsistent communication. Long gaps with no updates, followed by urgent requests to interview. The process felt unstructured and poorly coordinated. Felt unprofessional and disorganised. Not sure why, maybe I was just a backup.
Great interview process, quite lengthy but really well thought out. There was a call with recruiters, then hiring managers conversations, cultural fit call, panel meeting and then an in person meeting.
I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Box (London, England) in Jul 2025
Interview
Applied online. Did initial recruiter interview, seemed very positive during the call and said she was going to follow up after the call to move me to the next round. Never received any follow up and was ghosted after emailing twice. Awful.
