How would you go about greeting each customer who comes in the store? 

Retail products often change seasonally.  Can you quickly update yourself on all the new information so you can be prepared to sell the new inventory to customers as soon as it lands on the shelf

There’s no doubt that working in retail you will encounter an unhappy, disgruntled, or difficult customer.  Learning to hold in your personal feelings, addressing empathy for customers, and representing the company well in order to keep customers coming back are all important skills recruiters will look for when assessing how you deal with uncomfortable situations.

Countless potential customers in retail shops go unnoticed every day. It is often this attitude of indifference that leads people to shop at other places. Make sure that you have a candidate that will meet and greet your customers. Interviewees, let your personality shine here. Let your interviewer know that you are not afraid to introduce yourself to customers, and that you will not be hiding in the back restocking something.

Applicant should answer that being in a wholesale market, he/she would plan and direct advertising and promotional activities to attract more retailer suppliers. Promotional activities like posters, contests, coupons, give-away to create extra interest in the purchase of a product or services from customers or retailers.

These are a couple of examples of things that retail staff may be expected to get involved with, and they'll be keen to see how much additional training they might need to provide.

Applicant should answer that as a first line supervisor, he/she should directly supervise sales workers in a retail department. He/She would get involved in management functions such as purchasing, budgeting, accounting and ensure quality of supply apart from his/her regular supervisor work.

A candidate should not be shy here. Someone who tells you that they are uncomfortable when being solicited for proprietary charges by other retailers will not be successful in your organization. If that is something that you as a candidate struggle with, make sure that you portray your desire to succeed. Tell the employer that it is something that you are gaining skills on, and would love the opportunity to perfect your script.

As a wholesaler, applicant should say that he/she would face production problem, growing consumption, not concentrating on important market segment, scale of operations not being proper, delivery to different stores and having some issues with suppliers and not a good relationship with suppliers. I would face these problems in reaching the target commitment to suppliers as a wholesaler.
