Share This Article

Want to know if a candidate is truly sales-driven?

Drill down into their prospecting methodology:

“How do you go about prospecting? What’s your methodology?”

Then listen for:

  1. Consistency – Do they see prospecting as a daily habit or a last resort?
  2. Strategy – Are they using structured tactics or just winging it?
  3. Iteration – Do they refine their approach through trial and error?

Top sales performers don’t wait until their pipeline dries up. 

They treat prospecting as a core part of the job—because they know a full pipeline means more wins.

Want to see this in action?
