“When we interview for SDRs, we’re interviewing for future public company leaders. It’s not just about moving from SDR to AE; it’s about moving from SDR to AE to leadership, or even into another department — whether that’s finance, marketing, product, or beyond. We always, always look internally first for promotions. We know we have people who have mastered the culture, the product, and the team, and are ready for that next role.”
