The skills you have listed -- working under pressure, making decisions, communicating effectively, maintaining a schedule, doing paperwork, following rules and procedures, and leading others -- are qualities I would expect any qualified applicant to have if they have made it to the interview stage.

Wouldn't you ask those kinds of questions in the interview or need to know after you have them face to face?
And I can tell you as someone in sales, I do not care what actual sales you do if my company has a different product or has different customer service goals. I am going to train you anyway and want to know if you are mostly teachable and have appropriate goals.
