Cover letter sampleDear Hiring Manager,

I am excited to apply for the Sales Development Representative - Upsell position at Employment Hero. With several years of experience in outbound B2B sales and a proven track record of exceeding KPIs, I am confident in my ability to identify and pursue expansion opportunities within existing accounts. I am particularly drawn to Employment Hero's mission and its remote-first, AI-first culture. I look forward to contributing to your team's success and helping drive the next stage of growth.

Copy   Sample interview questionsWhy are you interested in an upsell SDR role specifically, and how does this fit into your long-term career goals?I enjoy the challenge of identifying growth opportunities within existing relationships. It's a strategic role that feels like solving a puzzle, and it provides a clear path towards a career in sales leadership.

How do you prioritize your outbound outreach when you have multiple accounts to cover?

I use a framework like BANT to score accounts, focusing on those with the highest potential. I also segment by product lines and use CRM data to inform my outreach. I maintain a balanced mix of phone, email, and LinkedIn touchpoints.

Tell me about a time you successfully re-engaged a disengaged customer or account.

In my previous role, I had a customer who had stopped using our products. I reached out with a personalized email referencing their initial usage patterns and offered a demo of our latest features. This led to a discovery call and eventually a renewal and upsell.

How would you collaborate with Account Executives to ensure a smooth handover?

I would ensure I have a full discovery documented in the CRM, including pain points, stakeholders, and next steps. I'd schedule a warm introduction call so that the AE has all context, and I'd continue to be available for any clarifications.

What tools and techniques do you use to make your cold outreach stand out?

I rely on personalized research using LinkedIn and company news. I also use templates but customize the first two lines. I set up sequences in Outreach with a mix of channels, and I track metrics like response rates to optimize.
