🔥 Tech Sales Interview Hard Mode (Unscripted & Unedited)

Think you’re ready for a real SDR interview? In this video, we put that to the test.

Connor—former #1 SDR Manager at Oracle and now a top-performing Enterprise AE at Datadog—grills me in a fully unscripted, unedited mock tech sales interview. No fluff, no prep, just raw, real questions and answers like you'd face when applying for an SDR (Sales Development Representative) role at a competitive tech company.

If you're an aspiring SDR, BDR, or looking to transition into tech sales with no experience, this interview breakdown will show you what it actually takes to stand out.

🔍 What You’ll Learn:
How to answer “Tell me about yourself” when you have no sales background
What hiring managers look for in top SDR candidates
How to structure your 100-account outbound strategy
The mindset needed to survive and thrive in a cold calling role
How to close your interview like a pro

👨‍🎓 Whether you're a recent grad, athlete, engineer, or career switcher, this is a masterclass in positioning, mindset, and sales readiness.

📈 Connor has interviewed and hired hundreds of SDRs. I’ve coached hundreds more through www.higherlevels.com. This is the real deal—no coaching before the call, just game-time execution.
