What exactly is pre sales? I have an interview for a pre sales cloud consulting role. Seems to be a focus on “digital twin”. This is an entry level position.

It looks like you would from the job description, but that would be a better question to ask this employer.

They will want you to know their product first. How to deploy it on AWS/Azure is usually not a concern for pre-sales.

It’s step in the right direction. Independent 1 is correct that this reads cloud agnostic so not the final destination

Presales is sales up to the point that the customer decides they want the thing. Best performed by an expert in the software. More fixed comp.

Sales is sales after the customer has decided they want the thing, more dealmaking, terms, structuring, contracting, deployment details. Mostly variable comp.

Pre sales is often very hands on with the associated product(s). You need to be able to give technical demos and articulate how this would positively impact the customer.

Sales is generally more focused on the deal specifics

Depends on the role. Technical presales is just that, technical.
You will have to figure out how your product will meet the customer's requirements and fit into their technical environment. You will build a lot of demos that show how your product will run on X or integrate with Y. You will focus on the downselect.

Been getting some interesting ads in Georgia. Got a letter about how Jon Ossoff is going to destroy Georgia’s economy and attacking him and his character. This was generated by David Perdue.

Ossoffs response? Bring up all the ridiculousness Perdue has done and how he’s left Georgia in a worse position. Didn’t say Ossoffs name once, just said get rid of Perdue.

I am a Product Owner with 4+ YOE. I have been in my current role for 4 months and have continuously found that this role and company are not the right fit for me. Looking back on everything they said during the interview process it turns out that the culture, product and role are not aligning with anything we discussed. They have added on responsibilities and I have continuously expressed to my direct manager how I feel.
