Why Use the Basic Sales Assessment Test?

Not every sales role requires a seasoned sales strategist. Sometimes, you just need a motivated person with the right basic sales instincts.
The Basic Sales Assessment Test helps you quickly filter candidates who can:

  • Balance being too nice or too pushy.

  • Understand basic product marketing concepts.

  • Close deals confidently without sounding forced.

It’s the perfect starting point for screening junior sales roles or customer-facing positions.
