How Better Home and Gardens Interviews Real Estate Agents ...

Our number one recruitment goal is building a relationship with either a new, struggling or a top producing real estate agent. Our goal for asking questions for the new or struggling agent is:

• Will they make it in real estate?
• What are their past accomplishments/work history??Sales experience?
• What is their personality/behavior style?
• The top producing agent is different in the fact that I want to know, what do they like??What do they dislike?
• What are the differences of our company vs. their company?
• What systems will I present to them?

The questions for new agents begin with telling me about his or her last job:

• What did you like and dislike?
• Why have you left, or why are you leaving, and what brings you here today?
• What sales experience do you have in your past, or contact with the public?
• Have you ever had to call people on the phone, or knock on doors to sell anything?
• What expectations are they looking for?

Now with struggling agents (diamonds in the rough) the questions are a little more to the point:

• How many people in your client base?
• How often do you market to your client base?
• How many FSBO (For Sale by Owner)?s have you listed?
• What is your technique when calling expired listings?
• How many hours in a day do you put into real estate?
• What have YOU done to build your real estate business?
• What are you expectations from a real estate company?
• Would you be willing to meet at?8:30?every morning to get your career back on track?

Experienced agents are in a ball game all by themselves. Here are some questions that I ask top producing agents:

• What three things are you looking for if you were to make a move?
• What would you change about where you are now?
• Are you familiar with our PinPoint or target marketing?
• When you take a listing what is your marketing strategy?
• How do you determine who you should market that listing to?
• Would you like to earn more money? How much more? Do you see yourself doing that with your current employer?
• What program do you use to manage your client database?

All of these interview questions ? no matter if it?s for a new, struggling or top producing agent ? are designed for me to find out where they are at. It also lets me see where I can add value to their sales career with the systems that we provide. Building relationships with prospective agents takes planning, patience, and a conviction that we are providing the best product for that agent.
