Trying to decide between applying for sales jobs (account exec) or something more ops/PM related, work towards product manager. Great storyteller, dangerous with tech theory/principles (can talk to a lot) but don’t have a very strong technical background in terms of hard skills. Would love to someday work for a venture capital firm and/or a game changing startup. Advice?

I went through six rounds of interviews including putting together a 30 minute presentation which I presented to the whole team. The whole process took about six weeks.

At the end of the day it’s business, but I am left feeling like I wasted my time (and theirs.)Totally confused and disheartened by this process. Anyone else experiencing this?

Any thoughts on what to expect?

The position is for a transactional role in their real estate practice group, and they are seeking someone with at least 2 YOE. I have a bit over 7 YOE with a strong real estate/commercial lit. background. Over the past two years in my current position, I've been doing a lot more transactional work. The split is around 50% transactional and 50% lit.
