Interview Blunders
CareerJournal.com references a survey from Korn/Ferry that identifies the most common interview blunders:
- Talking too much
- Lack of knowledge about company or position
- Over-inflated ego
- Appearing overly confident
- Inquiring about compensation too early in the process
- Unkempt appearance
When selecting salespeople, an overly strong ego combined with a Dominant selling style is a recipe for disaster. These salespeople, at their worst, turn into a walking flamethrower. Their approach will aggravate most who come in contact with them - coworkers, customers and prospects.
In case you were wondering (I was):
unkempt = 1: not combed 2: deficient in order or neatness
