QUOTES
Scott's thoughts on applicants that come unprepared: "I'm always amazed even with today, of the vast amount [of] information that's available on the internet, clickety-click-boom, that people will show up and still be unprepared and not have the ammunition ahead of time."
Scott on why you should choose attitude over aptitude, if you can only choose one: "You can skill somebody up. You can put them to training, you can invest in them. But it's really difficult to change attitude."
The ideal sales candidate, according to Scott: "Somebody that can go the distance, that can come in and will sit there and make the calls and do the deals at this level, and can hire and grow and keep going."
