Why Should You Look for Sales Jobs in Delhi?

In comparison to some of the other major metro cities in India, Delhi holds its own when it comes to the variety of sales job opportunities and lucrative compensation packages. Since it’s the capital of India, the seat of the Central Government of India and the Delhi Government, candidates from all over the country flock to this Union Territory in search of dynamic employment opportunities in sales.

There is great diversity in the city if you have to look at its portfolio of employers in sales: MNCs and startups, both possessing global and national footprints. Needless to say, candidates throng in the city as there are small, medium and large scale enterprises who continually hire sales professionals.

Delhi-NCR, in all its glory, offers sales jobs (for most, if not for all) as it is known to possess the highest concentration of active startups. In fact, it is well ahead of other cities such as Bangalore and Chennai. With an active startup ecosystem, presence of software and IT giants, an ever-growing concentration of 3000+ MNCs, Delhi-NCR comfortably becomes an ideal hub for sales job seekers from all over India.

5 Things To Look for in Delhi Sales Job Vacancies

You should know what you're looking for in a sales job before you start analyzing them. As a thumb rule, always keep the following 5 points in mind when considering a sales job.

1) Your Personality Matters

At the end of the day, you’ll only enjoy your job in sales if you really like what you’re doing. Any dislike towards the role will only result in monotony and misery.

To understand this, take the example of an individual who really enjoys communicating back and forth with customers and knowing them better over an extended period of time. For such individuals, a role in account management would probably be the best fit.

2) The Sales Lead

The role is all about sales. But how you want to go through with it will dictate your growth. For instance, if you’re totally into handling inbound sales, a role that requires you to head out into the field and be proactive will not be the best fit.

3) Relevancy — Prioritize It

Sooner or later, some jobs will always grow out of fashion or be replaced by something else. Consider the role of a Business Development Executive. Studies suggest that they’re highly sought-after by employers. On the other hand, roles like field sales jobs are steadily losing popularity.

Keep in mind that whichever sales job role you commit to, it has to stay relevant for atleast the next 10 years.

4) The Career Path and Industry

While sales skills are transferable, you need to understand that the sales role that you ultimately take up will determine the industry you work in. Of course, this works the other way round too.

The important thing to keep in mind here is that before you ultimately decide the sales role or the industry, your preferences and goals must be compatible with the positions and focus areas.

For instance, assume that you are interested in manufacturing sales. In this case, you’re more likely to handle sales deals from start to finish. However, if you’re interested in something like software sales, you may have to start off as a Business Development Executive, and after gaining much experience, move into an account executive position.

5) Profit or Security: Choose the Type of Commission

Some would say that compensation for a sales position relies heavily on commissions. Well, that's not entirely true.

A sales job may not consist of commissions at all. For example, sales representatives in retail stores and chains may get a lump sum salary. Having said that there are other sales jobs that completely rely on commissions, assuming that you’re good at your job. In the case of the former, job security is the highlight as opposed to the latter that screams profits.

No matter which role you ultimately choose, be wary of the median and average compensation, including your spending habits as you may realize that the sales job on the table may eventually not pay enough to meet your financial needs.
