Microsoft is hiring an account executive and I’m really interested in the role. I have B2B sales experience in a different industry, but my skills include lead generation, prospecting, account management, negotiating, etc (all within the C Suite and other decision makers).
Would appreciate knowing if this is something I have a shot at with no tech sales experience and what I could expect for promotional opportunities and compensation.
Thanks for the help!

Not weird. Annoying, yes, but not that uncommon. Promotions often go to the people who are the most visible, not necessarily the people who are the best at their jobs.
Question is how to be visible enough?
That is definitely weird, atleast to me. It doesn't seem like the company cares or values the consistent performers. I would see that as a big red flag.
Weird? No. It’s not weird, it’s not fair, but it happens all the time in this space. Especially if this colleague is really good at playing the office politics game.
