They don't expect, nor would they prefer, you to try to reinvent their business or their systems and processes right out of the gate. That's not why they hired you. They hired you for your strong interpersonal and communication skills, along with your other skills. Before you do anything, you need to earn the trust of those in their teams. A new employee should spend the first 90 days building relationships, asking questions, and learning how to do the job and why they do things the way they do is the answer to this question. Without having that valuable information, it will be impossible to make an impact.

"I noticed in your job description that you mention a sales hunter mentality as a must. My 90-day impact plan would be to aggressively tackle the cold call list that you mentioned has been neglected recently. These cold calls will increase sales appointments as my closing percentage is very strong."

"If hired, I plan to impact your business quickly. I will do this by fully absorbing my training, taking additional coursework if required, and building healthy co-worker relationships right out of the gates."

If hired, in the first 90 days, I plan to quickly learn from my training and build healthy relationships with my coworkers and customers.

Amanda's Feedback
I like where you're going with this answer. Solid team relationships and informative training are the foundation to making an impact. If it is appropriate to your role, share if/how you would build proficiency in using specific technology, tools, or systems or become familiar with specific clients or accounts to perform your role.
