How to Actually Get Hired
Who reads applications, which channel gets a reply, and what they screen for.
Don't make these mistakes
Generic "AI agent" enthusiasm. Fabian has a specific intellectual framework (tacit knowledge, institutional memory, the Google Maps analogy) and he's used it consistently across every interview. The fastest way to get ignored is to pitch yourself as someone who's "passionate about AI automation." The fastest way to get a response is to engage his framework directly, show you've thought about the problem of undocumented operational knowledge, not just the solution.
What gets their attention
The press release is explicit: Interloom plans to "expand across more enterprise customers and push go-to-market efforts." They are also launching a "Chief of Staff" agent, their first packaged AI product that orchestrates automation across complex workflows. That dual motion, new enterprise clients and a new product line, requires headcount that a Munich-Berlin-Amsterdam team of their current size cannot cover alone. The Notion careers page currently shows four open positions and the contact email (jobs@interloom.com) is active reading: "Please submit your resume and short introduction." That's a direct invite. Two signals from the investor lineup: Bek Ventures is a Central Asian and European VC with portfolio reach across emerging market enterprise deployments, hinting at expansion into Eastern European and Middle Eastern financial institutions. Air Street Capital, as an existing backer, focuses on applied AI in enterprise. Their continued participation suggests confidence in the GTM rather than just the research, which means commercial roles are the priority.
Why applying the normal way doesn't work
INTERLOOM uses an ATS, but referrals still come first. Cold applications aren't ignored — they're just behind referrals, sourced candidates, and recruiter picks.
Who to contact at INTERLOOM
What to show them
Commerzbank, Volkswagen, Zurich Insurance, JLL, and Fiege are already live. These are logos that close other enterprise doors. Interloom now needs someone who can run the next twenty of those cycles: senior stakeholder navigation inside large European financial services and industrial firms, long sales cycles, complex procurement processes. Fabian Jakobi has been doing this himself. He can't keep doing it. Core skills: enterprise B2B SaaS sales, financial services or insurance sector knowledge, German or German market familiarity, multi-stakeholder deal management, pilot-to-contract conversion, CRM discipline, executive relationship-building. Proof of work: Write a one-page account plan for how you would approach a new Tier 1 European insurer as a cold prospect for Interloom. Map the buyer (who signs?), the champion (who implements?), the pilot metric (what proves value in 30 days?), and the objection (why would a CIO say no?). Share this cold. It shows you understand the sale before you've had a single conversation.
