Sales interview questions in Australia and how to answer them
Australian sales interviews are usually friendly but direct: a phone screen, a behavioural interview and often a role-play. These are the questions that come up most.
Questions you will be asked
- 1Why do you want a career in sales?
- 2Tell me about a time you had to win someone over.
- 3How do you handle hearing «no» all day?
- 4What do you know about our products and customers?
- 5How would you prioritise your pipeline?
- 6Give me an example of a goal you smashed.
- 7What would you ask in a first meeting with a client?
- 8Sell me this pen.
Sell me this pen.
- 1Ask questions first: what do they use it for, what annoys them about theirs.
- 2Link one benefit to their answer.
- 3Handle the objection and ask for the sale.
