This was an IQ test, similar to those found by one wanting to enter the Mensa Society. The most irrelevant assessment for sales I have ever seen. I have always been a top performer selling any product. This assessment is by no means worth the time and does not properly vet qualified sales people. Completely rediculous.

The questions dealt with how we handled certain situations in sales and overcame obstacles, or how we would pitch the products based on some advertisements they put on the table to look at. The 2 interviewers I had were very abrupt and made me uncomfortable. One kept telling to answer only using the "star format". Having never, ever heard of this I was unable to do that and the interview ended up being very confusing and embarrassing for me.
