Going to keep this as general as possible so I do not dox myself, I have an upcoming interview at a large Cybersecurity firm. I am extremely excited for the interview, as Cyber has been on my radar for a number of years. I am extremely curious to learn about what more experienced sales reps look for in cybersecurity firms within this industry, as there are so many shops within the market right now that many cyber services could almost be considered a commodity. So what I am wondering:
What makes a cyber security firm "special" in regards to its services and product offerings? Is there any Cyber offerings that are oversaturated (like Audits/MSS) that I should be aware of?
What type of questions should I ask the sales team to get a better perspective of how the team on the floor is feeling about the market (deeper questions than Quota Retention and Churn)
What should be a fair market Base/OTE that I should be chasing in this market. Especially considering that I have 4+ years of sales experience in B2B Internships as well as B2C jobs (Upcoming College Graduate)?
Thanks again, apologies if this has any typos, currently typing this up in class!
