A good sales representative will be able to voice more than quarterly or yearly sales goals – they’ll have a plan and the passion and drive to accomplish it.

They’ll also be interested in opportunities for advancement and have a solid understanding of your company’s structure, and a clear path they hope to follow in order to grow in-house, unless you are looking for a seasonal hire. If that’s the case, make sure that both you and the applicant are aware that the position is temporary.
