Before applying, make your hardware sales background easy to follow: the stores or territories you covered, the product ranges you sold and the targets you worked to. If you have a stable track record with one or a small number of employers, let that show clearly, since the advert highlights it. Check that your driver’s licence is valid and that your contact details are current, and keep a copy of the advert so you can refer to its requirements when preparing your application.
Applications go through the original CareerJunction listing, where the recruiter reviews submissions against the stated requirements. Shortlisted candidates can expect to be contacted by the recruiter about next steps, which may include discussion of hardware sales experience, territory knowledge and driving arrangements.
