In this episode guest Gregg Salkovitch  gives advice on how to get a sales job in 2021. Due to the pandemic, many sellers are out of work and struggling to find that next job. Others have hit the ceiling for making money or simply ready for a new challenge. Finding a new job isn’t easy!  Gregg shares actionable advice you can take to find your dream job.

Sales Job in 2021

Companies don’t want to take a chance on a new employee. Since many employers  have no onboarding process, they  only want people who work for competitors. However candidates from competitors are hard to find since they often have non-competes.  With the growth of  WFH (work from home) companies are stuck hiring, they have no way of easily training new staff.   Candidates are stuck too getting a new position. Not just sales rep jobs but there is less hiring of SDRs for the same reason.

Pandemic in 2021 for Sales Jobs

Gregg sees possibility that hiring will pick up in 2021.  Sales is the lifeblood of a company.  One piece of good news: Location is not that important. Employers can now hire from smaller and cheaper locations because it doesn’t matter where they live when they work remote.

If a candidate does snag an interview they must be VERY prepared for interviews. You can’t wing it.

If you’re looking for a promotion, management may not be the right next step. You might find that working on bigger accounts might be more lucrative. Beware of  non-competes. New employers do not want to take the chance and going to the courts with your former employer.
