20VC Opinion
Citing a parent's advice is the worst SDR interview answer
“I'll tell you the worst answer you can get is when someone tells you, well, because my dad or my mom was in sales and they think I'd be good at it. And I'm like, oh God, like you have no idea what you were signing up for.”

SAASTR Insight
Kelly: Candidates who drive the interview make better outbound SDRs
“If they're driving the conversation and driving more of the interview in such a junior role, if they're able to do that, like more times than not, I have a lot of faith that they'll be able to do that when talking to prospects on the phone.”
