Job Interview

This should mean your knowledge of the industry surpasses the competition… Also, this company wants to know that you know how and can successfully network… give them examples of how you have done this in the past.

100% required for close contact communication lol
Ohh lastly, be confident… It shows the company you can do the job and won’t need a babysitter.

Main thing is really sales. The job is to sell CBD products at the time, yeah, but really sell them on the store, of the idea of growing, to get them in the store and buy shit there. At least that is how I see it and how I would handle it given the ad I applied to a month ago and the short phone convo so far.

Knowing the laws, limits, and all the stuff, especially for people who didnt know who to ask or were afraid to, is invaluable in doing that. As important at this point in legalization as grow knowledge.

Being a member of my state bar association is going to be a weird one. For knowing the laws, great! For getting annoying questions about being over qualified and why would you want this job, fucking annoying. I got that when interviewing to be a music teacher.

It disappoints me when I go to hydro stores in my area. Very few of the workers actually know anything about growing. I think if you can show you know what your doing when it comes to that… it will be one of your biggest assets.

Im already happy I got some soil there once to check em out. Mentioned it when he asked if I knew where the place was. Thats when he mentioned they were also looking for growers and seemed glad to hear it. Networking/connections are everything in sales, tiny better than nothing. To a salesman tiny is everything.

Yeah, a pair of jeans or shorts and sandals with low socks, and wear one of their company t-shirts if they sell them. They’ll all get a laugh at that.

Remember, they’re stoners too. They just want a stoner with wit and street sense that can impress stupid non smokers. In other words, just be an OG forum guy. You have a much larger world picture of the products, and how it’s dealt with internationally, as well. I would use that as a self promotion. We forum posters really do have a pretty wide knowledge of the industry and how people deal with it.

I’d use it as small talk, too. We really do speak with people all over the world every day. Who else do you know who talks to people all over the world on a daily basis? And, about pot? heh… Just wear clean clothes but do’t scare the poor kids. Wear what you would wear to go shopping there. You’ll most likely end up being regional/district manager of the company, and forget who we are, lol…

They’ll be more intimidated by you, than you of them. :wink: peace

I would do polo shirt and kaki. Nice neat and NOT a stuffy suit. Still casual.
