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.

Sometimes the best people to hire are the ones not looking for your role🤐 Top performers are typically crushing it in their current role, making good money, and therefore not looking to make a move. If you want top talent on your team, you need a hiring strategy set up to win over top performers.

Does your LinkedIn profile matter more than your resume?🧐 Jury's still out but here are 3️⃣ benefits of a LinkedIn profile over a resume⬇️ 1. Your LinkedIn profile can be updated in real time. Just made P-Club or hit 150% to quota for the quarter? Your LinkedIn profile can reflect live updates, while resumes become outdated quickly. 2. LinkedIn is a search engine - recruiters looking for specific skills can find you quickly from a simple search. 3. The info recruiters need is in the same spot on everyone's LinkedIn profile. They can quickly look at your profile to see if you'd be a good fit instead of searching through your resume for the right info. Resumes definitely still matter, but LinkedIn has quickly become more a more efficient way to get in front of the right people.

Would you accept a job solely based on a job description? (Hopefully the answer is no) The same is true on the other side - you shouldn't hire or disqualify someone solely based on their resume. Especially when it comes to sales, a resume will never tell you everything you need to know about a person. It takes time to vet out someone's intangibles skills, core values, and cultural fit to know if they would make a great hire or not.

Hiring managers - you are being interviewed too! As a hiring manager, A-Player candidates will be interviewing you back to see if this company - and team - is right for them. It's your job to sell the opportunity to the candidate as much as the candidate is selling themselves to the job. Interviewing should always be a two-way street.

In 2024 - is everyone still dreaming of the fully remote life? Is hybrid ideal now? Does anyone actually want 5 days in office? We're curious, let us know 👇

Do you have a hiring funnel? If you want to hire a top performer, you need to have enough of them at the top of the funnel to hire one at the end. Put metrics to it and work the funnel from the top down to get the A-Player you want.

How to WIN in the interview process🌟 When it comes to interviewing for sales roles, you have to separate yourself throughout the interview process to win the role. A sales interview IS a sales process - sell yourself to the role to win the job. Hear more about Pursuit's interview process here: https://hubs.la/Q02v5STQ0
