You should always look your interviewer in the eye when he/she asks you, "do you have any questions for me?" and say, "Yes, provided I'm given an opportunity to work for you, when can I start?"

We are what we consume:
Favorite movie?
Favorite TV show?
What main dish would you order at a good restaurant?
What is your favorite junk food?
What do you do for exercise?
What was the last book you read?

We used to do that some time ago Dan..."Sell me this pen" found that it pretty much just told us who had some previous training in sales at some point but not a factor in who could ultimately sell cars after a few days of basic sales training in a classroom.

...lo@Jurassic park! Thats a good one, you and me both perhaps
Dan Creamer said:If they have a sales background I skip the sales demonstration and use open ended questions to find out what they know and what they practice. Often times there is a difference between the two. The sales demos I reserve for green peas and though its old school and maybe just a matter of habit I think it gives me some insight into how fast they can think on their feet. The fact is though when I die they will bury me in Jurassic Park.

As an interviewer, I look for body language such as enthusiasm, how they sit, etc. I look at them as if I was the customer sitting across from him/her purchasing a vehicle.

Tone ,eycontact,body language all these things are importent..
Knowledge ? Application, process and procedure.Timing is very important
We are in a results business.Hard facts are easy to present I am always prepared.Plus does anyone use workethic and intuition.
Remember we all got hired at some point and given a chance. Aligne and converse casually.
Keep it light and professional what does the new employee have to offer to the bottomline.
As a customer all those attributes would convince me more then a crusty Pen sales pitch.
Smile with confidence...stick to the facts and needs.
