About the role
This interview tests whether you can grow freight revenue without giving away margin or creating unworkable promises for operations. The panel will look for informed market choices, complete pricing, disciplined pipeline leadership and mature handling of key accounts and tenders.
How to prepare
- Review how you build a freight price from carrier and handling costs through risk and target margin.
- Prepare a negotiation where you protected value rather than relying on a simple discount.
- Choose an account growth story that shows revenue quality, operational fit and relationship management.
- Be ready to explain how you qualify opportunities and challenge an unreliable sales forecast.
- Think through your bid or no-bid criteria for a demanding freight tender.
Common mistakes
- Celebrating revenue without explaining margin, cash exposure or operational feasibility.
- Accepting forecasted customer volume without testing its credibility or conditions.
- Treating operations as a delivery problem after the commercial promise has been made.
