Hi guys, I am an Account Executive at Sprint (NYC). I am a top performer blowing out my quota consistently over 450% every month. As an AE at Sprint I sell telecom (obviously) and SaaS solutions such as 365, Gsuite, and cyber security solutions. My salary is very low $49,600 however I am on target to make $175,000 this year. I have closed multiple big deals but I am feeling severely underpaid and want to make a move. I don’t want to do anything else but sell, I absolutely love sales. I want to transition to an AE role at Microsoft, Salesforce, Oracle, AWS, Slack, ProofPoint, Box, DropBox, and so on. I have been applying but struggling to get interviews. Does anyone have any suggestions for me? I have 4 years experience as an AE split between AT&T and Sprint. I would appreciate any career advice and would even be happy to meet up for coffee sometime for those in NYC. I really want to stay in sales and do not want a management position. Thoughts? Thanks again!
Are you technical at all? If so, try to show that on your resume as well. An AE who can speak and understand technical designs/environments will help you stand out from the crowd of resumes.
I have extensive knowledge with MPLS and helping customers switch to SDWAN. I also know Python. However I do not have this listed on my resume. Thanks for the feedback
I have no idea what our AE's make for Enterprise but please come teach them to not be morons
NYC has a ton of Fintech startups that need hungry salespeople. Look for them. You also might want to check out Zoom. It's selling video conferencing, which is similar to Telecom in a lot of ways. They have a sales driven culture, so they like nothing more than a young, hungry up and comer.
Thank you! I’m familiar with Zoom, I actually made quite a bit of money shorting the stock last week via put ratio backspreads. But that’s besides the point lol. I appreciate the response and I will for sure look for AE positions at Zoom and AE openings at Fintech startups.
