Do you have any previous experience as a Travel Agent?

"Absolutely! I have over seven years experience as a travel agent. Prior to that, I worked in commission sales, which is a very similar role."

The interviewer is looking to see if you have any prior knowledge of working in a travel agency before. They need to prove that you have previous experience on booking travel reservations and relevant visas, putting together travel packages and researching suitable vacation destinations as well as having a broad knowledge of countries and the different cultures. The same personal experiences can be drawn on if you haven't had any previous travel agency experiences.
