TLDR: If you want to find an entry-level tech sales job, it’s important to use LinkedIn for reliable job listings, focus on recent postings, research the company and hiring manager, reach out directly to the hiring manager, and go above and beyond to showcase commitment. This video, the fourth of five in the series, explains how there’s so much more to applying for sales jobs than just clicking “apply.”
1. Look for tech sales jobs on LinkedIn, as it is a reliable platform with free job listings, while other websites like Indeed and Glassdoor may have scams and misleading opportunities.
2. To find the best fit, Narrow your job search by focusing on entry-level sales development roles in your specific state or country.
3. Look for recent job postings, ideally within the last week, to increase your chances of finding an entry-level tech sales job with a company with the resources and expertise to train you properly.
4. Apply for jobs by researching the company and finding the hiring manager for the role to stand out in the market.
5. Researching job ads for keywords like sales manager, sales leader, and team lead can provide valuable clues about the hiring manager and the company’s needs.
6. By contacting the hiring manager directly after applying for a job and highlighting your application, you can immediately set yourself apart from other applicants.
7. Reaching out directly to the hiring manager instead of just applying online can make you stand out and increase your chances of getting hired, and sending a video message through vidyard.com can further demonstrate your confidence.
8. Applying for jobs requires going above and beyond to showcase commitment. Networking with employees can lead to referral bonuses and introductions, and consistent follow-up will eventually result in interviews.
