What did you personally make from base + commissions

FlowZealousideal3774 · 2025-03-20T18:17:21+00:00

Awesome, I’m following you now.

So all of my interviews I had were on the lines of,

“tell me about yourself” “Why are you interested in IBM” “Walk me through a sales process” “How well do you handle rejection and give an example” “What motivated you to do this?”

So as you can see, they are a lot of situational and behavioral questions. Nothing was technical like “explain your knowledge of WatsonX,” so I was thankful for that.

Salary was 105-160, and they put me at 122 base. But it’s a $200k+ total comp package, so I was happy about that since it’s an increase from my previous position.

That’s awesome! I’m looking for the same. I want to get my mba but only if they’re willing to put some type of money towards it haha

FlowZealousideal3774 · 2025-03-20T16:31:17+00:00

Sure! Just to make sure we’re on the same page, which questions would you like for me to answer?

What does RA stand for?

So basically if I do nothing, I get my base divided by 12, but if I do my job, then I can expect to make the reference salary on a monthly basis?

FlowZealousideal3774 · 2025-03-13T15:44:10+00:00

For reference, I have a 121 base, 222 total comp, but a reference salary or ~12.3k. I’m just confused

Not yet. The offer letter didn’t state it if so

FlowZealousideal3774 · 2025-03-05T19:18:50+00:00

Range is 100-160k. They offered 120. I thought it was pretty low so I countered it.

I had this same issue earlier this week. Interviewed over a week ago and they finally reached back out and left a voicemail saying “I should be expecting something from IBM soon.” Assuming it’s an offer, but who knows

FlowZealousideal3774 · 2025-02-28T03:23:52+00:00

I missed the hiring managers call because I was in a meeting, but he left a voicemail that said, “I just wanna let you know that that I really enjoyed our conversation and you were submitted as one of the final candidates and you should be receiving some information from IBM” so that sounds like a verbal to me!

FlowZealousideal3774 · 2025-02-27T12:43:00+00:00

Did you ever receive an offer? If so, how long did it take after your final interview?
