The Interviewer Says: Tell me about a time when you had to be very strategic in order to meet all of your top priorities.
Your Response:
Situation: In my previous sales role, I was put in charge of the transfer to an entirely new customer relationship management (CRM) systemon top of handling my daily sales calls and responsibilities.
Task: The goal was to have the migration to the new CRM database completed by Q3, without letting any of my own sales numbers slip below my targets.
Action: In order to do that, I had to be very careful about how I managed all of my time. So, I blocked off an hour each day on my calendar to dedicate solely to the CRM migration. During that time, I worked on transferring the data, as well as cleaning out old contacts and updating outdated information. Doing this gave me enough time to chip away at that project, while still handling my normal tasks.
Result: As a result, the transfer was completed two weeks ahead of the deadline and I finished the quarter 10% ahead of my sales goal.
