Business Development Interview Questions

45,307 business development interview questions shared by candidates

Part of the interview process is a "ride-along" day/interview in which I spent a day with an employee in the same position I was applying for. Afterwards, I was asked what "I would do differently" from the employee and how he could improve. A bit awkard considering I had no experience in the field and would not be able to provide an accurate and effective answer.

The first interviewer looked young enough to be my son and even though the HR Recruiter and those I interviewed with over the phone informed me that my interview and business plan was the most thorough she had ever seen, the young man I interviewed with in person took one look at me then said they didn't hire people without insurance experience. What!? I had just spent countless hours doing all the previously mentioned steps to get there and they dont hire people without insurance experience? Then why did I bother in the first place?

The interview questions were unsophisticated. One woman asked me what I failed the most at in my career. Was that supposed to be a behavioral question?? I hadn't failed terribly at anything in my professional life so What ever happened to tell me a scenario type question...
