what they want you to say is what other positions you have had or what other activities you have done that could relate to the new job. Don't leave anything out! If you took something like an economics class 2 yrs ago, put it in, but don't add anything you haven't actually done yet. Have you had any other jobs, or out of school stuff in the past? If your not sure whether to put something in, just throw it in. Having too much is much better than too little. Hope it helped!

It doesn't appear you have any college or military or special training, thus the queston.
You need to think of what they are looking for in a good employee. Especially in sales, are you personable, do you get along well and easily with people, do you have an easy manner? If you have a magnetic personality, that would be an asset in sales. At least you wouldn't run people off by looking at you.
Are you responsible, honest, trustworthy, respectful, dependable? These are just a few honorable puruits to which you can now add.
Do you have a childhood story of selling anything to anyone for more or less than it was worth? Did you run a lemonade stand? That might get at a least a chuckle from them.

Okay, not sure what they do but guessing it's a sales position of some sort. talk about group working (team work) and what you can bring to a group, if you are applying for management position then try to talk about times when you took the lead. If you leave a bit more about the position I might be able to give more specific advice.
Talk about your interests and any IT projects that you may have undertaken at school/college/personally. Talk about membership you have to any clubs etc and try to sell yourself.
