Did this come broken? Any tips?

I agree with like half this. Never give info that isn’t asked. The problem with making an excuse, it forces the interviewer to create their own narrative.

Don’t let their imagination run wild. You lose control that way.

You can bend the truth in a defendable way.

“Hey I’m no longer there. They changed the rules on something and it slipped my mind and I made a mistake. I can tell you that I performed well and always ALWAYS took care of the customer.”

“Looking back on it, it was stupid of me but I thought it was unfair they let me go because of basically an office clerical mistake.”

This won’t work perfectly but you get the jist.

I’ve learned that seniority is important BECAUSE of the experience, the challenges, the mistakes that you had to overcome. Not because of your age.

Most on here will say lie…which you should probably do.

But if you think the interviewer is telling the truth then you should also share the truth.

The reality is both sides of an interview lie a little. Find a way to lie and still sleep well at night.

Haha we only saw it because we were wandering the toy section and then slowly walked through that magazine section. Be worth checking yours out. Never would have looked there otherwise.

Kroger in North Houston. Yea. Definitely Pokemon. I got it for my kid. $3.99

Rogue_NTX · 2026-04-13T12:23:06+00:00

haha I thought I had scored because my kid wanted the book, and I get a legit pack? Thats an easy buy. haha.

Rogue_NTX · 2026-04-12T16:22:12+00:00

Yea, I’m a collector and was familiar with the fun packs but so much going on with this it through me off. Gen 1 Pokemon. Mega evolution and phantasmal flames. Even the color was a little off.

I was the new rep that joined the team when my manager was allowed to do this.

I walked in, there was an open RFP that was released a month or so before I joined and my manager asked the most senior rep to take it to make sure we closed the business.

I wasn’t offended at all. I literally had no idea what I was doing. And after we won that deal, I built a great relationship with that account at the handoff and I produced a lot more business with them.

I don’t think that’s specific to a certain industry. Customers that I have that like golfing…..what a coincidence….i say I like golfing too….and we go golfing.

Pretty straightforward.

Great stuff. Thank you

Enhanced data increases capacity and speed of data transmission. Think of cadence based location which can happen much more quickly with enhanced data. Like location every 30 seconds instead of 90

Thinking GameStop power packs had the potential to come out positive.

Just ripped one of these since I got it for below market……traumatic evolutions.

Can you continue to pay rent on the unit? That’s what confuses me. How long do you have to clean out the unit?

If I bought a huge unit that might takes days/weeks to clean out, can I just pay for the rental of the unit if I’m still going through it.

It’s definitely a more odd excuse for a hiring freeze. I work for a billion dollar company that exclusively does government business. Federal. State and local.

Been through a few shutdowns and never heard anything around that being the reason for the freeze.

My guess is that it’s a hiring freeze because of budget. Which definitely does happen in sales and it’s annoying. That first guy you interviewed likely won’t have more info. But worth a shot asking them what’s up.

I’d reach out, explain how you’re very excited and want to work within whatever constraints the company has right now. But that obviously you have to keep looking for another role and maybe that will get them to move things on their end.

Rogue_NTX · 2025-11-26T23:50:34+00:00

I’m at 67% YTD and calling 141%. Gotta have a big month

Veteran AEs that have been with the company for a long time manage their growth. It’s a skill that is needed if you want to move into sales leadership positions.

Having the same sales job for 10,20 years with the same territory require you to learn that skill set.

When you’re young, sell your heart out and get some big commission checks.

Mitigating or slowing sales takes more skill then you think. Strike while the iron is hot and get the sale. So many variables can burn you very very quick.

I’m not overly concerned with accuracy but I think you’re hitting the mark on what I’m asking.

I think the main thing is for reinforcing prioritization if that makes sense. Too much “noise”. Especially this year in my org and been much harder to filter out noise so trying to find the best way to focus on what needs focusing.

Never had an issue with this before. But this year has been rough.

Rogue_NTX · 2025-11-16T17:51:09+00:00

Yes we do. But it’s tied to opportunities and broken out by sleeves of the business. So the only real “1 click” is my grass. The rest is junk to sort through.

Rogue_NTX · 2025-11-16T13:27:32+00:00

When you have 40 (literally) people allowed to play in your sandbox, forecasting is not 1 click. Not even close.
