Sales jobs are in demand these days, and getting into them can be tough. Of course those are the regular sales jobs, but what about the 100k sales jobs? These are the top jobs on the market, and you will need to take some very specific steps in order to access them. The first thing that you will need to do is create a decent resume.

On your resume you will need to list a certain amount of experience. If you are going for one of the coveted 100k sales jobs, then you will not only need to have sales experience, you will also need to have a certain amount of education. For instance it would help greatly to have some sales classes under your belt, but beyond that there is something that no class could ever teach, and this is the skill of human interaction.

You see, the high paying sales jobs require a certain degree of finesse, and the most important thing is to know how to appeal to people. To put it not so lightly, you need to be able to get under their skin, and of course know exactly what they want. What you need to remember here is that a persons first instinct is going to be to say no, and you need to convince them that they want your product.



This is something that you will need to reflect in the interview. In essence, the interview is going to be your first sale, and the product you are selling is yourself. Of course besides selling yourself you will need to provide a very good resume. This isn't your run of the mill sales job, so that being said, what do you have to offer the company?

In order to determine what you can offer, you will need to investigate the company you want to join. This will of course need to be a very thorough investigation, and you will need to know exactly what the company is doing, who they are doing it with, and why they are doing it. Information such as this could include pending mergers, new products, and new policies. This will also help you in the interview simply because it will show that you are on top of the game and fully dedicated to working for the company.

Keep in mind that there may be multiple interviews. You may or may not nail the first one, but if you do, then you should be invited back for another. Once this happens you will need to try even harder, but getting past the first interview will require an absolutely stellar resume!

Your resume will not only need to list who you are and where you studied, but also what you are capable of. You need to list your experience to the best of your abilities, and that may mean you need to list your former employers. If you have ANY employment gaps in the past five years you need to make sure you do something about that. You could be the most experienced salesman in your region, but it won't count for anything if it does not appear you are dedicated to doing your job. If you cannot do anything about the employment gaps, it would be best to consult a professional resume writer.

There are many businesses and sales firms that are hiring employees for 100k sales jobs, but before you can attain these sales jobs you will need to show that you possess the willpower, the motivation, and the experience to perform in a way that reflects well on yourself and the company you represent. That being said, it's time to think of an interview strategy, and most importantly, present yourself as a professional and a human being.

One thing that you need to know here is that these jobs are not located in any one industry. All industries will require a sales department regardless of what their product is. You will need to be mildly familiar with a product in order to sell it, but you won't need to be an expert. Remember, these are the top jobs around the world, and when you find yourself in one, you will be set for life. You won't move to the top right away however. It's going to take a lot of time, and a lot of effort before you find yourself in a position where you are financially independent. Keep working, and keep pushing toward that goal, and you'll find yourself there soon enough.
