Likely interview questions for this role
Written from this job description, not a generic list. Each one notes what the interviewer is really checking.
About your past
Tell me about a time you built a pipeline from nothing, with no warm leads handed to you. Where did your first ten conversations come from?
What they are checking: Whether they can source their own business, since this role depends on prospecting they do themselves.
Commission sales has good months and slow ones. Walk me through how you handled a slow stretch.
What they are checking: Resilience and steady effort when results lag, which predicts who lasts in a hunter role.
Why outside sales rather than an inside role, and what tells you you'll enjoy walking into businesses cold every day?
What they are checking: Honest self-awareness about the grind of field prospecting, which is where early turnover comes from.
What do you use to track your prospects and follow-ups, and how do you keep that record honest?
What they are checking: Whether their pipeline is organized enough that a manager can trust their forecast and activity numbers.
What would you do
Denver has a lot of new businesses opening alongside long-time local favorites. How would you approach a brand-new owner differently from one who has been open for twenty years?
What they are checking: Whether they adjust their pitch to where a business is in its life rather than using one script.
You walk into a busy salon and the owner says she's happy with her current processor. What do you say in the next thirty seconds?
What they are checking: How they handle the most common brush-off without turning pushy or giving up too fast.
A merchant you signed last month calls you upset because a deposit hasn't shown up. How do you handle it?
What they are checking: Whether they own the relationship after the sale, since referrals and retention depend on how problems get handled.
An owner asks you to beat a competitor's rate, and matching it would make the account a bad deal for us. What do you do?
What they are checking: Whether they can hold on price and sell value rather than discounting just to close.
About the work
Explain to a small business owner, in plain words, how a card payment gets from the swipe to their bank account and where the fees come in.
What they are checking: Whether they understand payments well enough to answer the fee questions every merchant eventually asks.
Besides taking payments, which parts of a business management platform like Clover would matter most to a retail shop owner, and how would you show them?
What they are checking: Whether they can sell the wider platform, like inventory and reporting, rather than just a card reader.
