QUESTION 19 OF 30

What do you dislike the most about a sales position?

You want to discuss something you dislike in general about sales but that isn't directly related to sales. Mentioning things like paperwork, changes in the industry, or a smaller market in the area are good areas to mention because they aren't directly related to selling themselves. You'll want to talk also about how you work through this dislike. You don't want interviewers thinking this will be an issue in you performing your role. Talk about how you work to overcome any dislikes or difficulties in sales.

"The thing I've always had difficulties with within sales is the organization aspect and keeping records of correspondence with customers. I know not all companies require this, but many do and because my skills are in communication and not organization, it's something that I don't always enjoy. What I've found helps though is doing all organizational tasks in one day. That allows me to get it all done at once and spend the rest of my time doing what I love which is selling."
