How to Prepare for Head of sales Interviews

The Problem

Scripted answers fall apart under follow-up questions

You can memorize perfect responses to expected questions. But the moment someone asks 'why?' or 'can you elaborate?', the script breaks down.

Real interviews don't follow your outline. They follow the natural flow of conversation—which means unpredictability.

Practicing with static questions doesn't prepare you for the moment when you have to think and respond in real-time.

Why Current Solutions Fail

Why existing solutions don't solve this

Notes don't talk back

Bullet points and outlines give you structure, but they don't create conversational flow. You still end up talking at the camera.

Teleprompters flatten delivery

Reading from a script makes you sound robotic. It removes the natural pauses, reactions, and follow-up thinking that make content engaging.

'Just practice' doesn't solve structure

Recording yourself multiple times without feedback doesn't improve the underlying problem: there's no one to guide the conversation.

Understanding the Solution

The cognitive science behind conversational delivery

Your brain is wired for dialogue, not monologue. When you speak, you subconsciously look for signals—nods, questions, facial expressions—to calibrate your delivery.

Without these signals, your pacing falters. You lose the natural emphasis and pauses that make speech engaging.

This isn't a skill issue. It's a neurological reality. You need conversational feedback to maintain natural delivery.

How Olyetta Works

How Olyetta works: A structured conversation, not a script

Unlike teleprompters or note cards, Olyetta actively listens to your responses and adapts.

It asks clarifying questions, challenges assumptions, and guides the conversation toward depth—not just coverage.

The result is content that feels like a real interview, because it is one.

Dynamic questioning

Each question is based on what you just said, not a pre-written list. This creates genuine conversational flow.

Natural delivery cues

The AI gives you the feedback signals your brain needs—acknowledgment, follow-up, pacing—to maintain natural delivery.

Exportable transcripts

After recording, get a clean transcript, outline, and key hooks you can use for editing or repurposing.
