I have a phone interview with Pinterest soon for a sales manager role. Does anyone have experience with the interview process? Can anyone provide advice on what to expect / how best to prepare? Thank you!

You’d have a 30 minute basic phone screening w recruiter, followed by phone interview with a Sales Manager for about the same amount of time with some qs about Pinterest and how you handle certain situations etc. Then they'll send you an assignment like creating/giving a presentation and you’ll present this during another interview with a team of people. Very friendly folks. Best of luck!
