Tricky Pharmaceutical Sales Interview Questions: Question #1 of 7, How to Identify and Answer
Pharmaceutical sales interview questions that are negative in nature are designed to make the candidate reveal the “worst” part of themselves to interviewers. I’ll teach you how to recognize these damaging questions BEFORE your pharmaceutical sales interview, and how to answer them in a controlled and confident manner…proving that you’re the best person for the job!What’s t

He was talking about making advertising more personal, and allowing prospects to feel they are dealing with someone real rather than a faceless entity with no one in charge - no one accountable.

The Meal and Interview Nightmare - How to Interview With Your Mouth Full
Meal interviews are multi-tasking nightmares. Although the primary purpose is the interview, there's a secondary purpose to these mind-your-manners interviews: how well do you handle yourself during a business meal? During the course of my career I’ve seen quite a few ghastly faux pas that have nixed an otherwise capable candidate. So follow these pointers and mind your manners! Have you read Claude Hopkins' book "My Life in Advertising?" It was written nearly a hundred years ago, yet its principles are just as important today as they were then.

Life was different - simpler, yet harder in many ways. But people wanted then what we still want now. We want to buy products that live up to their promises. We want to buy services that do the same. And we want some assurance that there is a person in charge in case something goes wrong.

Look how frustrated we all feel when we try to deal with some large corporation where no one seems to have any authority to help with problems. And even worse - where no one seems to give a darn.

One of his chapters talks about the importance of putting a human face and name on a company. His example was advertising he created for a car manufacturer. In his ad he gave the name and face of the chief engineer - the man responsible for building a good car. In later ads he pictured the entire engineering team. He told of their expertise and their dedication to turning out the finest car on the road.

That made me think of the ads I see for local service businesses - ads that have no name beyond that of the company. My first thought is always "I wonder who it is?" Of course, since this is a small community, I want to know if it is someone I know, and if it is someone whose work I know - good or bad.

Because I've been connected to building construction my entire life, those are the ads that catch my attention: plumbers, electricians, excavators, insulators, etc. And since there are some in the community that I would steer clear of, I would definitely want to know who was behind a name like "Perfection Painting" before I would call.

I simply wouldn't call them unless I knew the name of the person I was calling. Yet, I've even seen business cards with only the name of the business. My memory isn't that good. If I pick that card up again in 6 months I don't know if it's someone I want to call or not. I can't remember the names people choose for their businesses.

Claude Hopkins wasn't talking about small towns and knowing the people personally. He was talking about taking a large company and turning it into an entity with a face and a name behind it. He was talking about making advertising more personal, and allowing prospects to feel they are dealing with someone real rather than a faceless entity with no one in charge - no one accountable.

But the principle is the same no matter if its a huge corporation or a small-town hair salon.

I have another thought on that subject. If you have a product or service to sell - or even a large company to promote - shouldn't you have enough pride in what you're doing to lend your name to the enterprise? If you're ashamed of it, why should anyone trust you?

We don't see too much personalization any more. But I think that what worked for Claude Hopkins nearly 100 years ago is just as important today. Taking pride in your business and lending your name to the enterprise will add a layer of trust that just doesn't exist when you hide behind a "company name."

Proper Business Attire: Where Do You Draw the Line?

Over the years, business attire has changed significantly. Because of the sudden change in business dress code it is sometimes difficult to draw the line between what’s acceptable and what’s unacceptable. Business wear in the traditional sense is stringent. Traditional business attire, for men, purely consists of wearing a dress suit. This includes wearing a matching coat and slacks, a long sleeved dress shirt, a necktie, and dress shoes.
