The interview process at Egnyte was disjointed and, while personable, ended up feeling as though the job that was being presented during the interview process had not been adequately communicated across all interviewers. Be knowledgeable and confident, but be sure to make certain everyone has the same set of information and expectations so you are clear.

Question 1
How do you feel marketing and customer success should work together?
I applied through other source. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Egnyte (Mountain View, CA) in Nov 2017
Interview
I was personally contacted via LinkedIn by one of Egnyte's senior leaders and invited for a phone screening. We had a quick but informative phone call, and after about 3-4 weeks I was brought onsite for an in-person interview. I had laid-back exploratory conversations with leaders from several disciplines, including the CEO. It was a positive experience — I didn't feel like I was being scrutinized under a microscope; rather, it was a two-way conversation in which all parties got to know each other with the goal of understanding whether I was the right fit. The questions were standard.

Question 1
What would be a reason for you not to accept a job offer from Egnyte?
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Egnyte (Mountain View, CA) in Jun 2015
Interview
Started the process with an internal recruiter reaching out to me to clarify my experience and verify my current compensation. He confirmed my compensation was within their range for the role. We continued the interview process for weeks, and I was genuinely excited about the team, the role and my potential manager...then received a low-ball offer? Tried to negotiate but they claimed my compensation was far out of their range for the role. Unfortunate waste of everyone's time at best, deceitful recruiter at worst.

Question 1
Thorough interview process and was able to meet the marketing team, peers, and CEO. All very smart and nice people, especially liked the CMO and thought she'd be a great manager.
