Business Development Director Interview Questions

1,105 business development director interview questions shared by candidates

As many of the questions related to Hubspot's current business practices as well as my previous employer, I'd prefer not to be specific. I will say, having metrics and specific examples on working with other departments, cross-selling, leadership style, hiring and managing practices and how you achieved growth in your last business would probably be an advantage.

Two and I mean two people told me that they have very little ready-made solutions at CGI and they asked me what I would do to alleviate this? What am I - Jesus? Can I make products appear out of thin air. Ahahhahahah

I was asked if I belonged to any specific group/church/organizations. I did not know what was meant by that and where these questions were headed as I was asked the same question several times in different ways. I guess they wanted to know my affiliation with or against a certain group. In the end, I inferred they were trying to see if I have any prejudice against a specific race. Of course I was not, but some of these questions were rather not so legal, and out of the norm, to say the least.
