How2Apply never charges you to apply, for training, for uniforms or for a "placement fee". If anyone asks you for money, it is a scam.

Prepare a 30-60-90 day plan for the territory and bring it to the second interview.
Show target versus actual for each of your last three years; B2B managers skip CVs without numbers.
