About the Sales Aptitude test

Hiring individuals with an aptitude for sales can significantly boost your business's growth and customer relations. Their ability to connect, persuade, and resolve challenges directly contributes to increased sales performance and customer satisfaction.

A sales professional with strong skills can significantly boost the performance of their entire team. By identifying and hiring these individuals, companies can raise the overall productivity and effectiveness of their sales teams, which, in turn, drives better results and higher revenues.

This Sales Aptitude test evaluates candidates across four critical areas: sales communication and relationship building, sales techniques and strategies, sales-related problem-solving, and innovation and adaptability in sales.

Each category within these areas targets essential skills needed in a dynamic sales environment. It examines specific aspects, such as verbal and written communication, relationship building, prospecting, and creative solutions. You can use this test to assess a candidate’s potential to achieve high sales results in various sales contexts.

This screening test is instrumental in identifying candidates ideally suited for sales roles. These individuals can seamlessly adapt to customer needs, devise creative solutions, and consistently drive sales efforts. Candidates excelling in this test are likely to enhance team dynamics, exceed sales targets, and contribute significantly to the overall success of your business.

Any tool can have functions—bells and whistles. Not every tool comes armed with staff passionate about making the user experience positive.

The TestGorilla team only offers useful insights to user challenges, they engage in conversation.

For instance, I recently asked a question about a Python test I intended to implement. Instead of receiving “oh, that test would work perfectly for your solution,” or, “at this time we’re thinking about implementing a solution that may or may not…” I received a direct and straightforward answer with additional thoughts to help shape the solution.

I hope that TestGorilla realizes the value proposition in their work is not only the platform but the type of support that’s provided.

For a bit of context—I am a diversity recruiter trying to create a platform that removes bias from the hiring process and encourages the discovery of new and unseen talent.
