How to write your own Sales Representative resume?

1. Include a relevant skills section

The skills section is as important as any other part of a resume. It gives you a chance to highlight your strengths and abilities which you feel best fit the job description of a position you are applying for. Of course, there are various types of skills and it's up to you to decide which you gonna include. Just remember, do not make the stuff up and don't make this section too long. There are also multiple ways how to mention skills in your resume. We recommend you to include 5-6 key interpersonal skills, languages, and relevant computer skills (if applicable).

Sales Representative Skills Example

"Customer Acquisition - Expert"

"New Business Generation - Intermediate"

"Public Speaking - Intermediate"

"Complaint Handling - Intermediate"

"Sales Reports - Expert"

"Flexibility - Expert"

"Good Team Player - Intermediate"

2. Explain your work responsibilities

Let the recruiters know about what you were in charge of and what you spent most of your time on in the previous jobs. Including your main duties will also help you to better describe your achievements and accomplishments. The work experience section can also be used to tailor your resume to the specific job description. This can be done through including relevant keywords in it (words or phrases which best describe the job ad). After building a perfect work experience section, put it near the top of your resume, right after the profile summary/career objective.

Sales Representative Resume Work Experience Example

Sales Representative / 'I am' Jewellery company, Dubai, UAE (11/2014 – 08/2016)

"Made presentations to promote new products and special deals."

"Retention of customers through policy renewal and sale of new policies and investments."

"Reviewed and coordinated implementation of marketing strategies. Evaluated profitability margins and buyer trends, making necessary adjustments to the floor plan and inventory to accommodate fluctuations in shopping activity throughout the seasons."

3. Add important contact information

This tip goes for any resume for any position. And although it may sound trivial, you would not believe how many people skip this step and don't include essential personal details in their resumes. Or even worse, they include information which should definitely be left out. For instance, the details that have to be added are name, phone number, and email address. On the other hand, the information to avoid is the date of birth, nationality, etc.
