Job interview Question in sales...

Question

I have an interview coming up soon with a very high end rug company who sells rugs up to $17,000. I have never worked as a sales associate and know nothing about the profession. When I turned my application in and sat down for a quick interview, the lady didn't seem to mind that I had no experience at all. I am worried I won't do all that well in this profession and am curious why they would want someone with no experience..also if i could get any help or pointers on what to say during my interview to get this high paying job... it would be greatly appreciated! thanks

Answer 1

they are ok with hiring an entry level salesperson.  they probably have staff on standby to help you out when you're in a pinch anyways.  as long as you have the drive and you want to make more than 17k, i.e. you want to make 40k.  then take a chance at it.  sales has its ups and downs but is very lucrative if you're good it.
