Master the Loan-to-Sale Flow

This role sits where sales meets credit: you'll sell vehicles and also walk customers through loan issuance. Hiring managers will look for someone who can handle both the customer-facing pitch and the paperwork discipline that keeps deals compliant.

1. Show you know the sales cycle: On your CV, detail your experience in selling, especially if you've handled credit products or high-value items like vehicles. Use numbers: how many units per month, average deal size, or conversion rate. If you're new, describe your sales training or any internship where you managed a pipeline.

2. Prepare for the loan process questions: Expect to be asked how you'd explain loan terms to a customer or handle a customer who doesn't qualify. Review basic loan documentation: application forms, income verification, and repayment schedules. Practice explaining these simply in both English and Swahili.

3. Prove your MS Office fluency: You'll use Excel for tracking leads and sales, Word for reports, and PowerPoint for presentations. Be ready to demonstrate your skills—maybe a quick test or a question about formulas. Brush up on VLOOKUP, pivot tables, and formatting.

4. Highlight your communication skills: Since you'll interact with customers daily, show examples of how you've built rapport, handled objections, or closed deals. Mention any experience with diverse customers or in the Coastal region, as local language and culture matter.

5. Understand the target-driven environment: The role has clear sales targets. Talk about how you've met or exceeded targets in the past. If you're new, discuss your motivation and how you plan to achieve them, like using a daily activity plan.

6. Show you're proactive and independent: The posting stresses adaptability and resourcefulness. Give an example where you solved a problem on your own, like handling a difficult customer or fixing a process gap. This shows you won't need constant supervision.

7. Emphasize integrity and loyalty: Financial roles require trust. Mention any instances where you handled confidential information or followed strict procedures. Avoid exaggerating your experience—honesty is key.

8. Prepare for the application process: After applying, you'll get an email with next steps. Make sure your email is professional and check spam. Fill any forms promptly and completely. Also, research Mogo Finance's products and values so you can speak to them in an interview.
