A sales recruitment agency works to find the right candidates to fill sales jobs roles within a client’s company. Those with sales recruitment jobs will work with a client through the entire recruitment process from advertising the job to placing the candidate within that company.
Sales Recruitment Jobs
The process will start when a client will approach a sales recruitment agency with their specific needs. Those who hold sales recruitment jobs within that company will then work with the client to discuss what they require from a candidate. A job description and advert will then be created and the sales recruitment agency will do their best to place that advert in as many suitable places as possible.
Those with the sales recruitment jobs will then sort through applications and begin conducting preliminary interviews of candidates on behalf of the client. Once a suitable candidate has been found the sales recruitment agency will get in contact with the client and recommend the candidate. Once the client has agreed, the sales recruitment agency will arrange an interview with the company. If the candidate is successful, they recruitment agency will then collect their fee.
Some people with sales recruitment jobs will need specific industry knowledge to successfully place candidates with companies. For instance, those who work in medical sales recruitment will need an understanding of the pharmaceutical industry as well as a good understanding of the client’s company and what they wish to achieve.
Those with sales recruitment jobs should possess very good communication and interpersonal skills. Those who are successful in sales recruitment jobs are confident, motivated, driven and possess excellent organisational skills. The average salary for those with sales recruitment jobs can vary depending on experience and the time the position is held but expect a salary between £18k and £40k per year.
