If you are a sales professional or want to become one, or if you are looking for a new sales job, you will face one of the toughest interview processes of any job seeker.
Candidates sometimes ask which is best: company car or allowance? So we thought we would allow you (the reader) to tell us what you think. Many candidates like the allowance because you can choose your car and don’t need to worry about driving record issues either. But companies got to know that I think that the company car is more “sticky” for the employer. What do I mean? I think reps with companies that have car allowances are more likely to leave (these companies have higher turnover) than companies with company car plans (all other things being equal). Many times, it is the tiny things that stop change cold in its tracks. Having to consider buying a car and the insurance, etc that go with it will stop many reps from considering a position without a car plan.
