What do you think are the three most important factors when evaluating a deal?
Describe a situation in which you've had to improvise.
How do you measure success?
How do you turn a lead into a long-term relationship? How do you decide which leads are worth pursuing?
Pick something in this room and then sell me on it.
How do you sell unpopular ideas to people?
Tell me about a time you used analysis to make a business-critical decision. Walk me through that analysis and outcome.

Dear Manisha Thakur,
While the previous member has shown courtesy by uploading a list of questions that can be asked in the interview for the position of "Business Developer," I prefer to ask a few fundamental questions.
What is the context of your query? Are you an HR professional, and if so, will you be conducting the interview for the Business Developer role? Has the Job Description been prepared for this position? If yes, then is it not sufficient to understand the role and functions of the business developer?
Who is eligible to conduct a job interview? Only an expert is eligible. Therefore, the situation merits self-assessment, and one should ask the question, am I sufficiently competent to assess the suitability of a job candidate? While an ignorant interviewer can conduct a job interview, the cost of hiring the wrong candidate could be far higher due to customer dissatisfaction or other operational issues.
Thanks,

If you do not know what a Business Developer is or what they do, how do you know your company needs one?
The alarm bells are ringing very loudly here. Go back to basics and rethink this whole thing. Do the research first, and then work out what needs to be done.
Agree with Dinesh, this is fraught with danger - to the company, and to yourself if it all goes wrong.
