Account Coordinator Interview Questions

Grocery stores

Wrong! CPG clients. Looks like you didnt get the job

I just want to reiterate that the answer is NOT grocery stores. It's CPG companies, as the original Anonymous said. Saying that the clients of NAM are grocery stores will likely stop you from proceeding forward in the interviewing process.

I am outgoing, calm, quick learner, liked well by subordinate staff, confident, great attitude, professional at all times, sense of humor, like challenges,

I had been in healthcare at that time for 21 years and had been in every position from Medical Assisting, Team Lead, Office Management, Practice Administrator, Financial Analyst, to Sr. Financial Analyst.

I hadn't been asked that question before so it caught me a little off guard. They are just looking to see what your personality is like because you not only interact with employees and clients a lot, but they also hangout outside of work as well. They just want to see how you would fit in.

I had a lot of sales experience, so most of the time we would talk about my resume and maybe get off topic. Really conversational and relaxed.

Come up with something unique to you and use your experiences. Don't just say you like people, they hear that all the time. I explained how with my economics/math background in school I really like solving problems and related it to my sales experiences and how sales came naturally to me because I was comfortable with it. So use your own experiences and say why you would be a good sales person.

They want to know how you understand the company (if your understanding is correct) and if you have done your homework about the company. Knowing what the products are is a really easy thing to know. So if you don't know what a shelf-talker is... look at the NAM website!!
