Behavioral Case
I got an email for an interview. They just asked if I had any sales experience. Then they just asked a bunch of star questions. such as give us an example of when this happens... and how you would react. I only did one interview and i was hired on the spot even with my little experience. I started about 3 days later. I was given a little booklet with different sales scenarios.
