At this time, there are sectors of the economy are demanding a major job, so if you’re one of those people who are seeking employment, probably not all is lost. Finanzaspersonales.com.co spoke to Hernan Torres, Area Manager Jobs, about the job opportunities in today’s market.
The ease of catching the people have a business profile. This is partly because in the second half of the year, companies have to put all its eggs to meet those sales quotas set for the end of the year, which means strengthening its sales force.
Something to keep in mind is that the ‘trade boom’ does not cover all vendors. Are some specific industries that are demanding hard workers. These are the telecommunications, call centers, construction and consumer goods.
The telemarketing at this time has become extremely important. This shift is because enterprises are increasingly aware of the cost reduction is achieved. So a great opportunity to have those who serve and are willing to make sales calls or to provide telephone service to customers.
What is the required profile
What is sought, primarily, are people with 3 or 4 years work experience in the sales area. The average age of recruits is between 25 and 35 years, and it appears that sex is a subject that is irrelevant to employers. In the selection process weighs heavily commercial achievements of individuals. This is not to invent things, but you can check things you have done. In interviews, the evaluators are responsible for finding their experience and their resourcefulness and ability to attract customers. An employer, for example, can test their ability to get a database.
Languages, in cases of commercial contracting, are irrelevant, however it is vital that candidates have certain technological capabilities. The commercials should be handled CRM systems seamlessly, so that they can perform the registration of a client or check your history without problems. This is particularly relevant in the case of telemarketers.
When submitted to one of these positions, employers prefer candidates who have a professional degree. The marketing professionals are welcomed for their versatility and industrial engineers and business managers.
Keep in mind that some sectors such as oil or TecnoquĂmicas prefer a person who really knows the product specifications rather than those with business profile. One of these companies prefer an engineer then a manager.
Another factor that adds enough to fill a vacancy, is the availability of candidates having to travel, both domestically and internationally. So singles, in this case have a point in his favor.
For its part, in the process of these, added graduate studies. For leadership positions is probably a master’s considered a prerequisite, but in the middle that seems to be the turning point.
How is compensation
When you participate in these processes, the candidates must know that their salary will have a fixed and a variable component and is very likely that the fixed component is not as high. In most cases, companies cancel aid communications and transport. So yes it is part of one of these processes of selection, first ask them to explain how the scale of variables.
Growing demand for technology experts
The boom is not only the sales force, those with broad technology skills are also quite prized. Telecommunications companies such as Movistar, Nokia and Microsoft are looking for software developers.
The most interesting is that these are companies that offer above average wages, as the tasks performed by these experts are quite specialized. In these cases, work experience is not the most important, but knowledge in the area of technology and skills of candidates. Companies in most cases, prefer to start to train these engineers.
