Would love to hear thoughts from any folks who have been laid off from there AE roles and are considering moving down to an SDR just to land a job.
I was 6 months in to my full cycle SMB AE role and performing well before my company let us go. That was in September. Now every AE role I apply for I don't have enough closing experience and they want SMB reps to have 2 years of closing experience. 100's of seasoned AE's are competing with roles I am seeking and at this point I just need health insurance and some sort of paycheck.
Has anybody else moved "down" the ladder to an SDR role due to the saturated talent that is on the market. Im looking a significant pay cut and transparently a blow to my ego, but I also have to eat.
