I've been in the job market for my next SaaS opportunity and am running into a frustrating and puzzling situation - no offers are coming my way. I'm by no means a sales wizard or God's gift to the professional world, but throughout my career, I've usually never had to fight too hard for an opportunity. I'm charismatic, passionate, hard working and high performing, and that has taken me a long ways.
Here are my stats:
- 18 months in SaaS
- Background in business and non-profit sector
- 6 months in a row of 200%+ quota
- Rookie of the Year, multiple sales rep of the month
I'm getting interviews, but all of them are passing over me for 'more experienced candidates'. I'm new to SaaS and the SaaS world...is that a legitimate statement? They knwo how much experience I have before they invite me to an interview, so it must be something I'm saying. Is it the market right now? I'm just very confused and frustrated, I'd like to learn here, but employers are not very transparent. Any feedback would be helpful!
