Sales and Recruitment

Sales is the industry that makes the world go round!  Virtually every company has a sales function of some sort and there tends to be many graduate jobs in sales as well.  Without a sales function, goods and services would not be sold and money would not be made!

Business to business (B2B) sales is the sale of goods from one company to another.  Business to consumer (B2C) is the sale of goods from a company to an individual. 

Graduate Sales roles are now an extremely popular graduate jobs to go into as they require intelligence, speed of thought, agility with numbers, good communication skills and the ability to develop relationships with people at all levels, usually over the phone and in person.

Recruitment Consultants are heavily involved in sales.  A graduate recruitment consultant can expect to be involved in selling recruitment services to companies and then selling the opportunities to candidates.  This can be for temporary contracts or permanent roles from entry level right up to senior executive level.
