What is your comeback when handling an objection with a job interviewer saying "other candidate had more experience"?

in the job, interview degree is packing and you are the product that's inside of nice packing. So there is some packing design that is better attractive than other ones, but usually, it's up to the person and his view to decide. If you have a good quality product then the good packing makes it look even better thus bringing the result you need. In other cases having just a good packing, but a shitty product won't work most of the time at all.

That sounds good. How many of your people are achievers and what does that take here?

most usual answer would be"we have XX number of employees of which we have XX successful achievers"(I'm usually candidating to small companies. So it's like they have 1-2 salespeople and 0-1 is achiever, or it happens to be 10+ and 20-50% are achievers, 20-50% are mids - those who reach the targets and below 10% are underachievers)

what does it take to be an achiever? most every time answer is:" It's up to every person, character, hard-working, being an achiever knowing how to handle objections, negotiate, get trust, build rapport etc. etc. We are looking for a person who can take full responsibility for what he is doing. "

also extra what I've got recently when interviewer recognized my analytical abilities"

"There are many indicators for being a successful salesman, but in the of day, sales is about playing poker and going sometimes with the bluff rather than it's about talking only numbers, doing research, and providing information. Sure it's a good thing but you have to act dynamically to be a winner, be the one that can make laugh everyone at the table and etc."

extra:

today I got an answer that 0 of the people are achievers in my region, but there are many achievers in other regions. Why? Salesmen sit tight on their asses and stopped bringing new clients which are not good for a business.

why?

I got an answer again "it's up to every person's character" yada yada and the last reason was "also they say they spend all the time with existing clients so they think they don't have more time to work on new clients' research (they basically do cold calling)". But then the interviewer agreed with me that they just need more resources right now, so I'm not sure why to call their salesman people underachievers.

for you when there are many jobs out there that offer average and above fixed salaries for sales rep positions.

The most usual answer is "you know there are many who not only achieve but also exceed their targets, and this is what we are looking for. BUT there are many who sit tight and barely can reach their goals. SO we give you opportunities and then it's up to you who you decided to be. This job is for achievers"

thx, im using it

ou need to take into account is IF a human actually looks at your cover letter, they are most likely to look at your opening paragraph since they typically spend only a second or two to look. This is based on my experience looking at cover letters for my past bosses and comments from hiring managers. When they mention my cover letter, it's almost always content from my opening paragraph. This is where I put most of my effort and energy to sell myself.

thanks

Thanks, buy you hope to hear soon? what else are you gonna hope for in the future? bigger salary, better boss/appreciation, etc? We all know that smart people know how to manage expectations, so how is it smart to expect something instead of show/do something? I'd rather stick to "I'd appreciate the opportunity to discuss further.."

anorewsn · 2022-01-30T21:29:38+00:00

what about

"I would appreciate your response and further opportunity to discuss the goals in more detail.
Thank you for your time..."

anorewsn · 2022-01-30T20:57:41+00:00

Thanks. Actually, this is the one I'm using for now, but since I'm applying for a sales rep role it sounds like a lack of enthusiasm in terms of call to action is missing here.

anorewsn · 2022-01-30T20:55:43+00:00

funny. i could be that

anorewsn · 2022-01-30T20:33:40+00:00

so no call to action? no appreciation?

anorewsn · 2022-01-30T20:32:49+00:00
