Sales Representatives Interview Questions

71,218 sales representatives interview questions shared by candidates

The questions dealt with how we handled certain situations in sales and overcame obstacles, or how we would pitch the products based on some advertisements they put on the table to look at. The 2 interviewers I had were very abrupt and made me uncomfortable. One kept telling to answer only using the "star format". Having never, ever heard of this I was unable to do that and the interview ended up being very confusing and embarrassing for me.

Every question is standardized. They ask a lot of questions that contain questions within the questions. Example: Name a time that you encountered a coworker who was unexpectedly upset over a mistake that you had made. Did you agree with their complaint? What would you do differently next time, and what is your opinion about the situation looking back now?
