Sales Recruitment

Recruiting sales people can be easy or difficult, depending on what level of experience you are looking for. An entry level sales job, for instance, may only require phone skills and may not be too hard to fill. These positions also almost guarantee a relatively high turnover as well, so hiring managers typically aren't overly concerned with long-term appeal.

Filling positions for IT sales, on the other hand, can be more difficult. There are plenty of experienced sales people out there, but how many have a specific technology background? Sales recruitment in the IT field often becomes a full-time job itself, as even finding appropriate candidates to interview can take a long time.

Interacting With More Than Clients
When deciding if a candidate is appropriate, make sure you understand what kinds of interaction you expect your candidate to have with others. Are they going to be speaking directly to the client or are they in a more supportive role? Will they be giving reports to management? Someone who may be excellent on paper may not turn out to have the social skills needed in a conference room.
