Expert reveals 'smart moves and mistakes' for sales jobs recruits

An industry expert has touched upon some of the biggest mistakes and smartest moves that sales jobs candidates can make during the application and interview process.

Renowned author and career columnist Alexandra Levit said that a mistake many people make is failing to use social networking sites effectively, with some candidates creating "information overload" by creating a presence on too many websites.

She added that many candidates often make the error of studying current jobs market trends rather than looking at the bigger picture.

Ms Levit explained that the long-term employment trends will give an indication of which sector they should be applying for: "Understand where the job opportunities are and will be by looking at statistics and broad trends."

Meanwhile, Mat Armstrong, writing for Human Resource Magazine, recently said that the same advice applies to recruiters – that all sales jobs candidates need to be checked out before being hired.
