I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Navan (New York, NY) in Mar 2025
Interview
It was smooth and went by quickly. They were very open and talkative during the process. I made it to the final interveiw stage where you have to rank companies that Navan could sell to. It was a very good sales experience.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
How have you gone up and beyond in your life to achieve something?
Straightforward, normal SDR interview process. recruiter screen, hiring manager/SDR leader interview, and one skills-focused conversation, all in a cold-call scenario. The typical why you, why sales, why now. Do your research and have a strong why.

Past experiences?
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Navan in Mar 2026
Interview
Had one screening call, and it was one of the weirdest interviews I've ever had. The interviewer sounded like AI, and it didn't seem like any of my answers were even being listened to. I would talk for about a minute or two, answering questions, and the interviewer wouldn't even react or give feedback, just go straight into the next question. A waste of my time.
Overall pretty standard. Only got to second round so it was all virtual in my experience. Their energy is very much like the typical SF based saas company maturing into going public.
