About your past

Tell me about a time you resolved a complex technical question for a salesperson where the first answer you found turned out to be wrong.

What they are checking: Whether they verify their own work and own a correction quickly when a customer is relying on it.

Give me an example of input you gave on a product roadmap. What did you base it on and what happened to it?

What they are checking: Whether they turn field patterns into evidence that product management can act on.

How do you build a working relationship with a rep firm that's used to calling someone else for help?

What they are checking: Whether they earn trust in the sales channel through responsiveness and straight answers, not just title.

Tell me about a time you mentored a less experienced engineer on the product support team.

What they are checking: Whether a senior hire will raise the whole team's level instead of becoming the only person who can answer hard calls.

What would you do

A rep calls with a special product request that falls outside our standard catalog. Walk me through how you decide whether we can quote it and what it should cost.

What they are checking: Whether they weigh engineering feasibility, manufacturing impact and price before saying yes to a custom design.

You've been asked to build an application training program for reps and engineers. How would you decide what goes into it?

What they are checking: Whether they can design training around the real mistakes customers make rather than a product feature list.

A rep pushes you to approve a quote fast because a contractor is waiting, but the selection looks marginal. What do you do?

What they are checking: Whether they protect the customer and the company from a bad application while still respecting the sales deadline.

When you're juggling a dozen open requests from different reps, how do you decide what gets answered first?

What they are checking: Whether they prioritize by customer impact and deadlines rather than by who shouts loudest.

About the work

How would you explain the difference between static pressure and velocity pressure to a newer rep who keeps undersizing fans?

What they are checking: Whether they truly understand fan performance basics and can teach it plainly to non-engineers.

A fan on a job is running loud and short of airflow after install. What questions do you ask before you blame the product?

What they are checking: Whether they know system effect, duct conditions and installation issues cause most field complaints.

What codes or standards come up most in commercial ventilation selections, and how do you keep current on them?
