Learn what to expect when invited to bidder interviews. This course will help you prepare for bidder interviews and improve your chances of winning contracts.

It is not uncommon for buyers to hold supplier interviews or presentation with businesses they are seeking to work with. Buyers seeking to hire suppliers will conduct interviews to aid their award decision making processes. Depending on the type interview, your presentation on the day could affect the outcome of your bid.
