BrightHire is a category-creating, high-growth software company with a mission to give everyone the hiring experience they deserve.

We deliver on this mission by transforming the way many of the world’s leading companies build exceptional teams. We created the Interview Intelligence category, and our clients span from the world’s most innovative companies—OpenAI, Anthropic, Ramp, Hubspot, Canva—up to Fortune 500 enterprises like HCA Healthcare and SAP.

BrightHire is now a part of Zoom, and as we continue to operate independent, we benefit from Zoom's broad technology platform and deep customer base.

As an Account Executive joining the BrightHire team, you have a unique opportunity to run at both greenfield and cross-sell opportunities within Zoom's install base. You get the flexibility of working within a startup tech stack, with the stability of being part of a publicly traded, globally respected technology brand. (And you get double the swag!)

  • Adopt a disciplined daily approach to build and maintain a robust pipeline, ensuring sufficient coverage. Utilize tools like Sales Navigator, Apollo, Hubspot, Dripify, and AI to optimize and scale your prospecting efforts.
  • Conduct deep discovery that goes beyond surface-level pain to tie BrightHire to CFO-level priorities. Build presentations, product demos, and supporting materials that enable champions at our prospects to sell BrightHire's value to their internal stakeholders.
  • Qualify leads and advance sales opportunities by applying a disciplined sale process (we use MEDDPICC).
  • Nurture prospect client relationships to constantly build pipeline.
  • Relentlessly move deals forward with multithreading across accounts to build multiple avenues to power and budget.
  • Navigate procurement, legal, and security reviews while controlling every controllable, and close confidently and consistently.
  • Develop accurate monthly and quarterly sales forecasts, and monitor open deals to refine these forecasts weekly. Use sound judgment to assess deal momentum, close dates, and deal amounts.
