Being authentic will help in sales job interviews

Being genuine and honest in your approach to sales job interviews will help you come across in the best light, according to one expert.

Jim Camp, founder of the Camp Group which provides advice for interviewees, gave Examiner.com his top tips for succeeding when being interviewed and said that getting too anxious beforehand can make candidates perform poorly.

He told the website: "Don't try to impress them with your dress, attitude, or speech. It will backfire. Be honest, direct and authentic. Look decent and be comfortable in your own skin."

Other tips included researching the company, asking direct questions about the position and not coming across as too desperate to secure the position.

James Caan, who appears on the BBC show Dragon's Den, recently told the Telegraph that techniques have changed in sales job interviews and as a result mean that candidates need to be better prepared and more impressive.
