Making a resume is an initial — and most important — step to getting any job for most people. Some kinds of jobs especially require job seekers to profitably ‘sell’ themselves to a company they want to work in. That is very true for a sales job, in particular. If a salesman is incapable of ‘selling’ themselves to a future employee, then it would be a bad start/continuation of a career, right? And that is why it is crucial to compose a so well resume, which will immediately attract the attention of a future hirer.

In a resume of this type, it is necessary to heavily focus on your achievements in a previous sales job, listing not only your responsibilities but also digitalizing them. For instance, indicate that you ‘sold the X number of this and that, which is % of the target sales plan for your role in Y Company for W period.’ This will be a good depiction of your skills and achievements, especially if the % percentage is more than 100% of the target.
Do that for all previous jobs you’ve been working and use the professional help of the online tool described below.
How to make a resume for a sales job using an online tool
There is a PDF resume builder online, which can do the biggest part of the work: CV2YOU. On its website, which is embedded into the link, you can choose one of several great-designed resume templates, which are then filled with your data to personalize it.
To start working, there is no need to even register or pre-fill tons of information about you before getting started. Pick one of the 6 offered languages of your document and get to work immediately after having selected the template to your liking. Saving it in your account is made at any stage of the work (although, this will require registration to prevent the loss of progress).
The documents in this tool contain everything a smart modern man or woman, especially a salesperson, needs to include in their CV:
- Name and contact channels
- Professional & technical skills
- Language proficiency
- General summary
- Experience in work
- Certificates
- Educational background
- Areas of competence
- And free data.
In the case of need, there is a possibility to include other blocks of data from the offered list, like a photo or personal interests. A user of this online tool is also offered to make the outcome even more tuned to a personal vision by selecting font faces and colors to their liking (there are 6 font faces and 8 colors). Everything is designed here to create a perfect match for optimal visual perception, no matter what color or font face is chosen.
Surely, if a user feels that some block of data is irrelevant in the document, he or she can delete it or replace it with another. Also, adding new fields of data is done with only a click.
After the result of the work is saved, there is a possibility to download the result as a PDF file to send to hiring companies.
