I'm thinking of applying for a sales job, but I'm not sure if I'm qualified. I've never had a specifically defined "sales" job, but I have worked for startups for the last 5 years (including my own) and since I have a knack for sales and really enjoy it I have become the de facto "sales guy" I've run booths a couple of major trade shows in the gift industry, done a whole lot of b2b marketing taking charge of everything from SEO to cold calling to working with customers coming up with contracts and production schedules. I've also been in a management position for the last 5 years with 5-15 people working under me. I know a lot of the people who work for this company, and the person giving the interview knows who I am, so I might get to make up for a little bit of underqualification. Here's a link to the posting I am considering. It's the last posting on the page. Does it look like something I would be qualified for or even want to pursue? What's a ballpark salary for such a position? http://coton-colors.com/careers

Count Freebasie posted:So, let me ask: What is your ultimate goal? That might give me a better idea as to where you might want to look. Your first sales job often will determine the entire trajectory. Resume isn't as important in the beginning - how you conduct yourself on an interview is. I'm not looking for a career in sales. Ideally I'd like to make a little bit of cash for 3-5 years and then go to grad school. I'm self employed right now and I love it, but I'd really like to take home a little more dough until I have a savings that I'm comfortable with.
