Do it, try it
Do it, try it
Do it
Listen to the sound
Of a new tomorrow
Take over my dreams
A dance on repeat
A trance on a hard beat

Like a shout in the night
Moving at the tempo
Of a broken song (hmm)
A dance on repeat
A trance on a hard beat
A dance on repeat
A trance on a hard beat
Listen to the sound
Of a broken heart
Calling for a sign of love
Heal me up (try it, do it)
Back me up (do it)
Turn me on (do it)
And I'm (do it)
A dance on repeat
A trance on a hard beat

Heal me up
Back me down
Turn me on
I'm alone
Heal me up
Back me down
Turn me on
I'm alone
Try it all
Do it, try it

Thank you and best of luck on your interview!
I would say the focus of your prep should be on a few specific skills, company interest, and how you will present your answers. Let's go over how to present your answers first so that when you are gathering the info for the skills you can be thinking of it in this framework.
STAR Interview Method:
S = Situation, the problem your company or customer was facing (i.e. our sales were down)
T = Task, the things you were assigned to do (i.e. I needed to close at least 5 deals)
A = Action, the way you went about completing your tasks (i.e. I sent out 50 cold email, setup 20 meetings, and I was able to close 5 deals by getting to know the real challenges our customers were facing and how our system could help them)
R = Results, what were the results of your actions (i.e. because of the 5 deals I closed, our revenue was at a record for the past 5 years and I am better able to help our customers that I meet with now)
1. Sales Results - how do you approach sales and how were you able to achieve those results? Make sure to frame it with your goal being to help your customers.
2. Cold outreach - you need to show that you have the ability to message, call, email, or speak with people that you have had no prior contact with.
3. Creativity - you need to show that you are able to look for opportunities in places that other people may not expect and are able to drive business results that other people would overlook.
The other thing you need to show is company and industry knowledge, be sure to spend time getting to know the company you are interviewing with. Start on their website, then go through each of their social channels to get not only an understanding of what they do and their culture, but also write down as many questions as you can that you want to ask your interviewer if they have time.
Additionally, if you can show that you have a network that you can call upon in the industry you are going to be working in, it will also give you a head start.
This will show them that you care about their business and are interested in them as a company and you are not just looking for a job.
Those are the the best tips I could come up with off the top of my head, I hope they help!

Hello!
Thank you for your interest!
To be honest, I am not familiar with any courses on Business Development so I would feel less than honest recommending any.
However, I can recommend a book about selling things that helped me: To Sell is Human by Dan Pink
You can find it here: https://www.danpink.com/books/to-sell-is-human/
Hope this helps!

Matt Tizzard
This resonates so well with my YouTube channel! Sales/BD is a fantastic career choice and our job is to educate schools and colleges to teach young people that Sales is a fantastic career choice. The benefits of the skills learnt in sales will have such positive impacts on all aspects of their life's. E.g winning, losing, handling rejection, commitment, self development, etc

Thanks for the comment Matt!
I totally agree, the skills that come from working sales can really be leveraged across any career.
I appreciate your time Matt, thanks again!

Agustin Marquez Segat
I have been offered this in my company, they say I will be a natural since I have charisma, not afraid of talking to people and also have enough knowledge in what we do, our infrastructure infrastructure and how it works (I was doing both Support and SysOps) and the cybersecurity industry. Wish me luck!
