Colloquio
The IBM Sales Representative interview process typically includes an initial phone screening, followed by one or more behavioral and technical interviews. Candidates may complete a sales-related case study or role-play exercise. IBM assesses communication skills, problem-solving abilities, and sales acumen, emphasizing a consultative selling approach and customer-centric mindset
Domande di colloquio [1]
Domanda 1
"Tell me about a time you had to persuade a difficult customer."
They often focus on behavioral questions using the STAR method and may include a sales role-play to assess your negotiation and communication skills. I personally try to focus on fulfilling getting to the root of the situation to see if we can fulfill the customers needs rather than just trying to "sell" them a product/service
Il colloquio è durato circa un’ora e venti minuti e si è articolato in diverse fasi. Inizialmente, il selezionatore ha posto una serie di domande attitudinali volte a valutare le mie competenze trasversali, la capacità di risolvere problemi e l’attitudine al lavoro di squadra. Successivamente, mi sono stati sottoposti alcuni quiz comportamentali, pensati per osservare le mie reazioni di fronte a situazioni pratiche e ipotetiche legate al contesto lavorativo. L’intero incontro ha permesso non solo di approfondire le mie esperienze passate, ma anche di misurare il mio approccio alle sfide e la mia capacità di adattamento in ambienti dinamici.
Started with a virtual interview which was pretty basic and then moved on to an actual interview with a recruiter. That interview was similar in style and mixed basic questions with STAR questions.
