Well that is how we define the job and now let's describe how a candidate should read this job: 1. This is going to be some serious shit, I better be convinced I want to do this. Clearly, I will need to run enterprise sales campaigns with highly qualified people (the R&D heads of industry leading companies) where communication skills will matter a lot. Not only, how fancy my spoken English is but the content of my talk or email will be ultra important Better I not apply if I am unsure how prospects at such positions talk, think, what they read, how they respond and more importantly on what factors they make decisions or get influenced. 2. I will need to run a longer sales cycle (very much a value driven sale) with a consultative approach (man, this approach sounds glamorous but this is tough nut). Better I not apply if I truly don- t know how to sell value first and price later otherwise I will struggle once I am in. 3. The service solutions to sell described in Job Description has a hidden message: this job will require a close coordination with technical teams on one hand, who will raise their issues on why cost should be 10X and the client on other side being nebulous with requirements, after all he is R&D head and would like to dilute the disclosure of his core technology. I will be the bridge and will face heat from both sides. Let us redefine some aspects of the job: The is a 'cut and dry' sales job with singular focus: connect with as many prospects in the R&D departments of corporations, build rapport in telephonic and email conversations and perform the sales dance of mapping their requirements with the solutions we got to enable a deal win.
