Okay, so I was laid off about a month ago. Company went from an inside model to outside. 3 of us were laid off.
This job market is crazy. I have 2 years of closing experience and 2.5 years of SDR experience, still getting so many rejection emails for SMB AE roles. These JD's want 3-4 years of closing experience and industry experience too. This is the craziest I've ever seen it.
Someone else published a post that they moved from AE to CS and haven't been happier. Same commish, but less stress. I was thinking about it, but this has solidified the decision for me. Tech sales is in shambles right now, and as I interview more and more it seems lots of SMB sales cultures are crazy high volume, and churn and burn reps.
So, given that these CSM JD's are just as strict, how do I stand out?
