Supercharging your hiring process: Your complete guide to structuring sales interviews

‍

Hiring the right salesperson can be tough — how can you know if someone is going to perform well and fit into your culture from just one or two conversations?

‍

Putting thought into your interview stage, preparing for it carefully, and structuring it properly can make all the difference when it comes to your decision. But in order to interview a candidate for a sales role effectively — whether you're looking for a Sales Assistant, Sales Manager, Account Manager, BDR, or any other role — you first need to know what you're looking for.

‍

Usually, salespeople require more soft skills to be successful in their roles than in other professions. This means that interviews and CVs might be less effective tools for you to really understand the candidate and just how well they might fit into your organisation.

But never fear — our psychologists and experts have done the hard work for you! They have identified the most important skills and traits for salespeople and developed a handy guide on what to look out for in candidates, how to interview effectively around these, and what questions you need to ask to really get to grips with culture fit.
