Rent a suit. Take the interview. Focus on connecting with the interviewer. Talk about everything EXCEPT your lack of experience. Leave them with an impression.

so you're saying i should go in like :drevil: and not be surprised if it's some bullshyt?

It's a scam bruh. Theirs real Account executive and account manager positions but in this case it's just a fancy word for door to door sales but they phrase it as "face to face" . If they tell you they work with Fortune 500 companies That's your que to walk out or just troll the rest of the interview.

Scam may be the wrong word, but their deceptive. no steady income 100% commision. You'll get called back for a second interview no matter how bad you do. I ran across two of these kinda companies last summer. Fell for it the first time then straight trolled the second time.

account executive is a meaningless title, easily applicable to a common sales job. there are call center reps who work under the title of online coordinator. sounds real important, but it's a basic job.

that's most likely what your job entails, which means you shouldn't worry about shyt.

There's an episode of malcolm in the middle that went a little something like that. Ended up being a job interview for a secret government agency.

whats the pay range?

shiiit. i don't even remember. i've applied for so many job that i don't even know where to look. i think it's prolly like 15 an hour though. it's prolly a call center or sumn. i can't recall applying for something too outta my league even though a nikka was thinking about submitting my resume to a dentists office just to get the hook up on some gases and gauze.

Account executive is just a fancy name for sales.

You manage or baby clients in the order of who is the most valuable.

Repeat Clients that have been with the company for years >>>> clients that order more but only do so every now and then. CRM 101.

your pay will mostly likely be commission based, otherwise what incentive do sales people have to work harder?

Also, tell them you're a go-getter who's driven by money.
