Why it matters: OTE tells you what you could earn. Attainment tells you how realistic it is.

Ask: “What percentage of fully ramped reps hit quota last year?”

Company hiring

Questions to ask on the first call

Built from what this posting leaves out. How they answer tells you as much as what they say.

  1. 1.

    This role has been open a while. What's made it hard to fill?

    The answer tells you what candidates saw that made them walk.

  2. 2.

    What percentage of fully ramped reps hit quota last year?

    OTE is what you could earn. This is how likely you are to earn it.

  3. 3.

    What percentage of reps on the team have been here more than 18 months?

    Tenure shows whether people stay long enough to get paid.

  4. 4.

    Has the comp plan changed in the last 12 to 18 months? What changed?

    A plan that changes every year means the goalposts keep moving.

  5. 5.

    Who sits with reps and reviews calls each week?

    Coaching is often what's behind a good or bad attainment number.

  6. 6.

    Why is this role open? Did someone leave, or is it new?

    New headcount is growth. A replacement means someone left. Ask why.

When the offer comes

Save these for later. They land better once they've said yes to you.

  1. 1.

    Can I see the full comp plan in writing, including clawbacks and accelerators?

    What's in writing is what gets paid. Read it before you sign.

  2. 2.

    Can I see the actual comp distribution for the team last year, not just the OTE?

    The spread shows what most reps really take home. OTE is just the target.

  3. 3.

    I'd be walking away from earned commission to join. Is there room for a sign-on bonus to help cover that?

    Leaving money behind is a fair reason to ask. The worst answer is no.

Full posting
Who we are Mindtickle is the leading AI-powered revenue enablement platform, helping sales teams learn faster, practice smarter, and perform at their best. We bring together onboarding, training, coaching, content, digital sales rooms, conversation intelligence, and AI role-plays into one platform so revenue teams have everything they need to build winning sellers. Global companies, like Fortune 500 organizations, trust Mindtickle to support their revenue teams. Customers and industry analysts have also recognized us. G2 has ranked us the #1 Sales Training & Onboarding platform for 28 consecutive quarters, and Forrester has recognized Mindtickle as a Leader in revenue enablement. Mindtickle was also recognized as AI-Based Sales Solution of the Year by the 2025 AI Breakthrough Awards and has received Stevie Awards for Technology Innovation and Customer Support Excellence. At Mindtickle, we're helping companies create high-performing revenue teams, and we're looking for people who want to help shape what's next. The Opportunity Every account we have today started as a name on somebody's list. We're looking for an Account Executive to go find the next wave - hunting, qualifying, and closing net-new business across a defined NAMER territory, from first cold outreach to signed contract. You'll carry the number for new-logo bookings, with direct access to leadership whenever a deal needs a push - it's a founder-led sales cycle, so when you ask, senior leadership jumps in. The upside matches the hunt: commissions are uncapped, plus a cut of deal revenue on top. And you'll do it all while selling and training on Mindtickle's own world-class revenue enablement platform, putting you at the forefront of the sales revolution you're helping build. What You'll Drive Own quota attainment for net-new logo bookings - every deal you close is a brand-new customer, not a renewal. Build and run your own outbound pipeline - prospect, cold call, and break into net-new accounts instead of waiting for leads to land in your lap. Qualify fast and disqualify faster - spend your time on deals that can actually close, not ones that just feel good to work. Run full-cycle deals from first conversation to signature - discovery, demo, business case, negotiation, close. Navigate complex, multi-stakeholder buying committees with persuasion, resilience, and hustle - new logos rarely have a single decision-maker. Build the business case and ROI story that turns a skeptical buyer into a champion and wins executive sign-off. Keep forecasts accurate and CRM data clean enough that leadership can trust the numbers, not just hope for it. Partner across SDR, Marketing, Solutions Engineering, and Product to turn territory and market insight into pipeline. What You Bring 3-5 years of experience in quota carrying role in SaaS CXO-level communication - you can win an economic buyer's attention and trust before they've ever heard of us. A proven ability to navigate complex deals and internal dynamics - multiple stakeholders, competing priorities, no single decision-maker. Persistent and driven - a stalled deal or a “not interested” doesn't end your pursuit, it just changes your next move. A track record of building and closing net-new pipeline in quota-carrying SaaS or software sales, from first touch to signature. Comfortable prospecting into cold accounts - you don't wait for a warm intro to start the conversation. Experience owning an annual quota of around $1 million in new-business bookings, with the discipline to hit it consistently. Familiarity with structured outbound or account-based prospecting methodologies (e.g. MEDDIC, Sandler, Challenger) would be an advantage. Nice to Have Experience selling into revenue enablement, sales tech, or L&D/EdTech is a plus. Prior President's Club or similar recognition for quota overachievement is nice to have. How You'll Work with AI At Mindtickle, AI is a collaborator, not just a tool. We expect every team member to actively use AI to move faster and think bigger. Use Mindtickle's own AI-powered platform - conversation intelligence, AI role-plays, and deal execution tools - to prep, coach yourself, and run a sharper sales cycle. Lean on AI to research and prioritize target accounts, turning a cold list into a ranked, personalized outbound sequence. Feed AI-assisted analysis into your forecasting so your CRM hygiene holds up and your number is one leadership can trust. What We Offer One of the best commission plans in the industry - uncapped commissions plus a percentage of deal revenue, so your upside scales with your number, not against it. Founder-led sales cycle - our co-founders work from the office and jump in directly when a deal needs a push, giving you real face time and full support in the room. Sell and train on Mindtickle's own world-class revenue enablement platform - you'll be at the forefront of the sales revolution you're helping build. Flexible hybrid work - we care about output Unlimited paid time off, plus company holidays and all statutory leave entitlements Comprehensive health coverage for you and your family Wellness support - physical and mental health programmes Learning & development access, including Mindtickle's own platform Our Culture & Values We hire builders, people who move fast, learn from failure, and use AI as a default part of how they work. Our values- Delight Your Customers, Act as a Founder, and Better Together- aren't wall decor. They're how we make decisions here. Growth at Mindtickle looks like owning more, not just doing more. Your scope will outgrow your job title if you want it to. You'll work alongside people who've scaled revenue tech globally, get direct feedback from leaders invested in your development, and take on challenges before you feel ready because that's how the best growth happens.
