Our proprietary four-step recruitment process

Sales Recruitment Process Step 1

Step One - The Job Brief

This is the foundation of any search and sets up the story that we discuss with potential candidates. We aim to become an extension of your HR or Talent Acquisition and get a deep understanding of your business beyond just the surface level.

  1. What does success look like in this role, and are there top performers that we can benchmark against
  2. What are the deal sizes and the average sales cycle
  3. How much of the sales cycle is the candidate completing
  4. What makes your company unique, what are your offerings, and key points of difference to the market
  5. Who are the competitors in the market
  6. What does the commission structure look like
  7. How realistic is career progression, and what does that look like
  8. What are the “success stories” of existing staff that we can promote
  9. What is the management style

Step Two - Building out a Profile

Now we understand the role and the company well enough, we can confidently build out a basic picture of who we believe would fit and what that person’s experience looks like.

  1. What level of experience suits this role
  2. What type of sales role(s) has the ideal candidate had to make their experience levels right but also mean that they are motivated to make the move
  3. Is experience within a specific vertical or industry necessary
  4. Will a tertiary qualification be irrelevant or potentially be a good guide towards the right person
  5. What deal sizes should the person be used to selling
Sales Recruiters Process Step 2
Recruitment Process Step 3

Step Three - Planning and Market Mapping

Once we understand what the profile looks like and have a clear understanding of positioning your brand, it’s time to plan the search.

  1. Where should we be looking to headhunt
  2. What job titles will be relevant
  3. What businesses train well and retain badly
  4. What’s the key message and “story” that we need to grab the attention of top talent in a bite-size chunk
  5. Who should we avoid and why

Step Four - Execution

As Benjamin Franklin said – “By Failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.” The execution is the easy bit once we have the foundations in place. So, where do we go to execute a search?

  1. Our extensive network of candidates with whom we have relationships having been nurtured over many years
  2. Various headhunting tools, including LinkedIn and other databases
  3. Social Media (we have more than 23,000 followers on LinkedIn alone, and that number is growing)
  4. All major job boards
  5. Active candidate referral program
Recruitment Process Step 4

What our clients say about us

As a client, I can say that the experience has been exceptional. Only the best candidates were put forward, and I could have easily filled the role 3 times over. I’m very happy I now use Pulse exclusively.

Peter - Director of Data Centre Services, Leading ITC Managed Service Provider

The things that we typically look for are high-quality candidates that come with excellent sales skills, but we are also looking for cultural fit. It is super important, which is something Pulse Recruitment really understands. I’ve actually stopped working with other recruiters. In terms of recommending Pulse Recruitment, my experience has been fantastic.

Rich has great knowledge and helped us find the right candidates in a very tough market. Did a great job!

Jayson - Country Manager Asia-Pacific, Leading Video Interviewing Platform

Nick was welcoming and a pleasure to work with. He had effective and proactive communication channels and together we moved very quickly through the process from introduction to candidate placement. Tasks and responsiveness was activated quickly. We were able to place an outstanding candidate in 3 weeks and our experience was professional and enjoyable.

Nick has been a delight to work with during the recruitment period. Communicative, knowledgable and attentive are just a few of the words I can think of to sum up his approach.
