I'm in my mid-50s, 25 years in tech, only 10 of those in sales, but at one company the whole time (tech B2B AE, small/mid/ent) im interviewing for an AE role at another tech company (not a competitor) in the Bay Area. My current company has less than 10
AES, a couple Assoc AEs, the new company is 3x bigger, more "modern" and professional,younger, and has maybe 50-60 AE's. looking at LinkedIn, none of them are over 40. Leadership doesn't look much older. it's not a dream job, so I'm doing this as much for practice as anything.
But I want to hear from younger AEs about what you've seen older folks on your team not knowing or blind spots you see. and older folks, have you been in this situation? what did you learn? Any interview tips
I consider myself young at heart, get along really well with my young colleagues, Im very good and flexible with technology and business systems, and get a lot of energy from being around younger team members. I don't really do much on social media. I guess I just don't know what I don't know about working in a more advanced, younger organization. Thank you friends!
