    I feel like I’m stuck

    This community might have come at the perfect time for me. I feel really stuck in my sales role and I don’t know who to turn to.

    I’ve been handing my CV in all over the place and I can’t seem to catch a break.

    Are companies not hiring in the UK right now?

    Lots of companies hiring sellers with a successful track record.

    How did you do last quarter/year?

    What is making you feel stuck in your role?

    I think the market is probably depressed for new hires. But as Will said, if you can show a proven track record most hiring managers will jump on a call with you.

    Are you blindly emailing your CV out or are you “selling” these people like you would a prospect?

    If you have had a poor quarter or two, and still applying for a new role like me, I would say its not about what happened but what you are doing to correct poor performance

    tell the hiring managers about your sales studies, new attitude, sales practise, consistency and a balanced life .

    If you tell a hiring manager ‘i failed at this and this, but i am doing xyz and practising abc’, they will have much more respect for you, because they have failed too, some of them big time

    you cant win without failing, so dont be afraid to fail, keep practising and one day you will nudge forward in your chosen direction
