    Attracting top tech sales talent: How to write a compelling job advert

    Leilani Janchote

    Finding the best tech salespeople can be such a challenge in today’s competitive job market. That’s why crafting a compelling job advert is essential to attract top-quality candidates for your roles.

    In order to make a good first impression on potential employees, job adverts are a major part for businesses. Job adverts need to promote the company's principles, the advantages of being an integral part of your team and to list the main duties.

    A great job advert can make you stand out above the rest, so here are five top tips on how to write an eye-catching job advert to attract candidates to apply for your tech sales jobs

    • Define Your Ideal Candidate - Before creating a job description, it's important to have a clear understanding of the type of candidate you are looking for. Consider the skills, experience, and attributes that are essential for the role. By defining your ideal candidate, you can tailor your job description to attract the best candidates for the role.
    • Create a Strong Job Title - The job title is the first thing that candidates see when they come across a job description. It's important to create a title that accurately reflects the role and is enticing to potential candidates. For example, "Senior Technical Account Manager" is more specific than "Account Manager".
    • Write a Clear and Concise Job Summary - The job summary should provide an overview of the role, its responsibilities, and its qualifications. It's important to keep it concise and easy to read, while also highlighting the key selling points of the job. Focus on the most important information and the specific outcomes the candidate is expected to achieve.
    • Outline the Benefits and Perks - In addition to salary and commission, candidates are also interested in the benefits and perks that come with the job. Outline the benefits and perks that the company offers and consider what benefits are most important to your ideal candidate and highlight them in the job description.
    • Emphasize Growth Opportunities - Top tech sales recruiters are always looking for opportunities to grow and develop their skills. Focus on highlighting the growth opportunities that the role provides, such as the potential for career advancement and professional development.
