I was in sales or sales related jobs for 30+ years. Looked very hard for a similar opening for a long time. Worked for 2 privately held companies for that period of time (35 yrs).

I applied with a number of companies that had one thing in mind. Are you working for one of our competitors? Can you bring a big bunch of their customers to our company immediately?

It was that simple. If you could not do both, you were not qualified.
