Accounts Executive interview questions shared by candidates
A potential, very potentially profitable, client calls you up, saying they're interested in your product. They need to speak to your CEO ASAP. If this isn't possible, you know for a fact this deal is off the table. The CEO is in an important meeting, but in an absolute emergency, is available. What do you do? (NOTE: I danced around giving a firm answer as best as I could, but the interviewers forced me to give an answer...my advice is, regardless of what your answer to tough questions may be if interviewing w/ Epic, just give one. You'll be forced to one anyways, delaying it makes you look weak and indecisive.)

If you were handed 50 new target accounts how would you start?
1 Answers↳
I would segment the customers into territorial zones in terms of proximity. I would then rank the prospects in terms of size and potential. I would then begin to aggressively seek out business from the group zones on a daily basis. I would seek the appointment to be a two pronged initiative, in which I seek to introduce myself and find out the current status of the business. I would then conduct this for 8-10 customers per day until the fifty calls are completed, and follow up calls have been scheduled. This is assuming that these 50 calls are my only account base. If I am to fit these in on top of active customers, I would then fit them in my normal call list and seek to target 2-3 per day starting with the largest potential customers in a given area which I am already scheduled to be in for that day.

Yes I got the job but it was not what was sold to me and was not negotiable as far as a possible change. I would be viewed as a difficult person and crt baby. the job is 95% on the phone and if needed a visit to your territory. In my case i am based in Chicago and cover obscure accounts in the southeast. so none of my 20 plus years of relationships mattered to them. Less
