I just went through this myself - make sure you’re super confident going in, solid process and problem-solving skills, great client skills, think about a couple difficult projects you had to deal with because they may ask you about it!
I got offered a job and at the interview they cared a lot about my personality and client skills and how I planned on managing AEs! Best of luck :)

Apart from the specifics in the job description, I look for someone scrappy who can problem solve and take projects and run with them. I also like to see a positive attitude who can rally the team.

I am not getting any response on my posts..I'm feeling depressed due to my bad luck. I have only 1 month noticeperiod left & had only 1 offer in hand with 40CTC. Right now my current salary is too low which is 27LPA with 14 yrs of exp and working as Data scientist. I am getting very few interview calls. Not able to decide whether to join that 40CTC or need to withdraw my resignation. The problem with current offer is job in another location with 3mnts wfh option.
Please pour your suggestions!!!

Anyone has seen any impact on conversion rates?
