Pursuit

Hiring sales is different from hiring any other position. Why? Recruiting shifts when you have to vet out the soft skills required for sales, rather than matching resumes with open positions. Hard skills are easier to find as they are 'measurable' and soft skills are not; a lot more strategy, preparation, and intentionality are required to seek out the soft skills needed for sales roles. We have placed numerous candidates that weren't a fit on paper but were a strong fit for the actual role. A resume never tells the whole story.

We're honored to have made the 2024 Inc. 5000 list of fastest growing privately owned companies in America for the third year in a row! We wouldn't be here without our clients and every member of our team helping us build Pursuit over the past 9 years. We're so thankful to each of them for putting their trust in us along the way! #inc5000

How to create a resume that hiring managers want to read📃 - Keep it to one page - Numbers!! Include metrics, sales numbers, rankings, etc. Make it easy for the hiring manager to see your success. - Reverse chronological order - start with your most recent position and go backwards. - Clear, concise, and easy to read. The goal of a resume is to be able to look at it and see if your experience is transferrable to the role you’re interviewing for. Make it easy on the person reading it.

A player salespeople might not need your role like you think they do. Most top performing salespeople are employed, and succeeding where they're at. They're not going to be out looking for and applying to your role. Sales leaders, your recruiting function has to have a proactive approach to filling your hiring funnel with top performers in order to get the talent you want on your team.

The never-ending recruiting cycle🔄 You land that A-Player for your company. You’re excited to have them help you scale your company. & then just a few months into the role, they leave. How do you avoid this? Adding VALUE to your employees will keep you off the recruiting hamster wheel. When an employee sees the long-term value in your organization, they’ll often choose your company over others - and be in it for the long haul.

When you’re interviewing for a sales role, here are 2 of the most important things to remember⤵️ 1. A sales interview is a sales process. You’re just selling yourself to the job instead of selling a product/service. 2. They're typically(not always) going to be interviewing more qualified candidates than you. Come prepared to sell yourself, overcome hesitations, and explain why you’re the best fit for the job regardless of who you’re up against.
