When a company or an organization is looking for people who can represent and sell their product the second thing they look for after previous work experience and qualifications is confidence. Some says confidence doesn't come out of nowhere it is as a results of hours,days,weeks ,months and years of constant hard work and dedication. Where there is no confidence is like an empty tin that makes a lot of noise.Many people will agree that anybody who doesn't have confidence the chances of that particular person to succeed in everything are absolutely zero.
