About your past
Tell me about a time you grew sales with an existing customer.
What they are checking: Whether they can upsell or cross-sell by understanding needs, not by pushing products.

What would you do
You'd inherit a book of business with water and wastewater customers. How would you get to know those accounts in your first month?
What they are checking: Whether they have a plan to learn customer needs and spot growth, since the role is about growing an existing book.
A customer calls about a product you don't know well. How do you handle it?

A customer says they found the same product cheaper somewhere else. What do you say?

About the work

What they are checking: Whether they have done homework on the market and understand operators value technical help and reliable supply.
How do you use a CRM to manage your accounts and follow-ups?
What they are checking: Whether they keep good records and plan contacts, since the posting lists CRM knowledge as a plus.
How do you handle a quote request so it's accurate and sent quickly?
What they are checking: Whether they balance speed and accuracy, since slow or wrong quotes lose business to competitors.
