Interviewer: How often did you give sales presentations at your last job?
Greg: I never gave sales presentations at my last job. I worked on the sales team and I helped prepare the presentations, but a more senior member always gave the presentation.
Interviewer: This job requires that you make sales presentations often. Do you feel like you will be able to do that successfully?
Greg: Absolutely. Like I said, I spent a lot of time preparing presentations, so I know exactly how to prepare an excellent and persuasive presentation. Also, I have watched experienced salespeople give many presentations, and I know that I have the ability to do it, too.
Interviewer: Do you have any experience speaking in public?
Greg: Of course. I was on the debate team when I was in university and I gave weekly presentations to management at my previous job. I feel comfortable speaking in front of other people, and I know that I would be able to do a good job.
Interviewer: Well, I like your confidence. And it is good that you have some experience speaking in public.
