What Job question?

DCFC79

OP just because he gave you his card with his number on it doesnt mean he thinks you have missed a question, he gave it to you in the off chance there was something else you wanted to know.In any case i cant see you being marked down for not asking another question

What you might want to do is ring him, thank him for the interview etc and that, having learnt more about the role, you're keener than ever about the job so the one question you do have for him is whether he has any reservations about your ability to be a success in the role?

If there's a second stage you can ask if he's progressing you to that next stage. If he hums and hahs and says he has others still to see you can ask "ok well if I was the only person you were seeing for this position would you be comfortable putting me forward/that I can do the job?

Okay so i ask these two questions Above, and how i was overwhemed by him telling me about his background and how we could work well as a team with his training, help and guidence.
then the big question to ask him "How are you measured?"

I just need to word or is there too much for a phone call?

i can only but try...

(Or maybe i should just stick to driving an artic :eek:)
I DONT BL**DY THINK SO :rotfl:

I've asked that question twice and it appeared to make the interviewers uncomfortable both times. The second time I asked it the interviewer said, "we've already asked you everything we wanted to know". I cringe thinking about it and decided never to ask it again!

To see if i am eager/interested to get the job? apart from this no as i am new to sales and thought of it as a total career change.
I know he is looking for someone to mold to his ways.

Nearly. In this case you are selling yourself as trainee. He wants to see how you handle yourself when a deal is left up in the air - whether you let it drift or you go in and maintain momentum

So phone him on tuesday like he indicated and ask the above questions?

To be quite honest are you SURE that you want to operate in this industry!? I mean its all about being pushy and decisive, and you are asking US to practically dictate to you what you should be asking, how and when?!!

If we tell you what to do or how to do it and you get the job off the back of it, your employer may become disappointed with you very quickly. I don't think it will do you any favours to help you over this hurdle.

Aww, that's a bit harsh. It's his first sales job/interview
