Choose the right perspective

Look for candidates who bought products or managed supplier relationships directly. Ask them to describe specific decisions they made—which supplier they chose and why, or how they changed a supplier relationship. Avoid those who only attended meetings or reported on others' choices.

Questions to take into the conversation

  1. 01Walk me through a time you chose one supplier over another. What made the difference?
  2. 02When a supplier failed to meet your expectations, what did you do and what would you do differently?
  3. 03How did you decide whether to pay more for better quality or stick with a cheaper option?
