How to Get an Animal Sales Job

How to Get an Animal Sales JobHow to Get an Animal Sales JobAnimal ausverkauf careers are often difficult to secure, as there is always a great deal of competition for these potentially high paying opportunities. A skilled sales associate can earn a great deal if they are able to secure contracts with customers (especially if the compensation package includes commission-based pay). It is certainly possible to increase your chances of being hired in the animal sales industry if you gain the right types of experience and education. Here are some ways to make yourself a more attractive candidate for animal sales positions Choose a Career Path A candidate who is interested in the field of animal sales should begin by determining what specific type of sales they are interested in pursuing professionally. Popular animal-related sales career paths include veterinary pharmaceutical sales rep, pet product sales rep, livestock feed sales rep, pet food sales rep, equine product sales rep, p et insurance sales rep, or equine insurance sales rep. Defining a specific area of interest early on allows a student to tailor their college courses and internships to build a strong resume that will draw interest from employers. It is very important to fully research the specific career path before committing to it. This background research might involve arranging a meeting with a professional in the field, researching careers online, and reading career guides or professional publications. Meeting with someone who works in your field of interest can be an invaluable resource and is highly recommended. Seek Education Most animal sales representatives have at least a four year Bachelor of Science degree in a field related to marketing, animal science, biology, zoology, veterinary technology, or business. Those with higher level graduate degrees or extensive practical experience will have the best opportunities in the field. Sales representatives should have a solid knowledge of their industry, strong communication skills, and the ability to persuade prospective clients to try the product that they represent. Most new recruits must complete a training course with their employer before having the chance to interact with clients. There are also several certification courses available to sales professionals that can boost a candidates sales credentials. Gain Practical Experience Completing an internship is one of the best ways to gain hands-on experience in the animal sales field. Many companies have programs designed to expose students to opportunities in the industry. Internship programs are available in veterinary pharmaceutical sales, animal nutrition, and more. Many of these internships are offered in 8 to 12-week summer sessions.Some internships also run for semester-long sessions, and college credit may also be available for students who complete these experiences if it is arranged in advance with their institution. If it is not possible to find an opportunity with a sales company, you might benefit from working with animals directly at zoos, aquariums, humane societies, stables, or veterinary clinics. Sales experience gained through other non-animal related sales agencies will also be valued, as sales skills are readily transferable from one industry to another. Find an Opportunity Animal sales jobs may be advertised in trade publications (both in print and online).Colleges and universities often get advance notice of jobs that might be of interest to their students, so be sure to subscribe to any job-related email lists your educational institution may offer. Opportunities may also be found through a search of job sites such as AnimalHealthJobs.com, Monster.com, CareerBuilder.com, and a variety of recruiter sites. You can also search through company websites to see if an employer has a job posted that might be of interest (major employers like Bayer, Merck, Hills Pet Nutrition, Alltech, Purina, and Zoetis often post vaca ncies on their websites). Even if there are no jobs listed, be sure to send a resume and cover letter to organizations that you are interested in working for. You never know when an unadvertised position might suddenly pop up. Be sure to also inquire about any possible internship opportunities, which are a great way to get your foot in the door for future positions. Your college or university may also be able to help with job placement, so ask your advisor and professors about any connections they might be able to help you make with industry professionals.

Red Flags and Warning Signs in the Interview Process

Red Flags and Warning Signs in the Interview ProcessRed Flags and Warning Signs in the Interview ProcessRed Flags and Warning Signs in the Interview Process Putzier and David BakerAlthough the candidate interview and other screening tools are the key factors that we should use in makingour hiringdecisions, bear in mind that there are other factors that can also weigh for or against a candidates hireability.Also, the interview does not start when you begin asking the candidate questions in your office. It starts when he picks up the phone for a phone interview and continues when he gets out of his car in the parking lot, when he greets (or doesnt greet) your receptionist or other staff and throughout the entire process of interactions.Here are some red flags and warning signs to look for in conducting the interview1. Arriving late for the interview. This should be obvious, but unless there was an act of God preventing the applicant from being on time, why in the world would you expect her to come to work on time?2. Treating your staff dismissively or disrespectfully. Remember the good old days when we had secretaries? Mine was also the receptionist in the employment office. Wanda would bring the parties application and rsum to me for review while he was sitting in the reception area.All she would have to do was let out a sigh and a look of disgust when she laid the paperwork on my desk, which then elicited a Whats wrong, Wanda? from me. At which point, she would say, Oh, nothing. Hes just a little arrogant or something of that nature.This is a case where the horns effect is valid. If the candidate treats my secretary with disrespect before he is even hired, how do you think he is going to behave on the job? This is when he should be on his best behavior3. Not wearing appropriate attire for the position. This is a variable. A janitor applicant might be acceptable in clean jeans and a T-shirt, although dressing up a bit would be a plus, whereas someone applying fo r a management position should be wearing proper business attire. Again, its a sign of judgment and awareness.4. Meet and greet. Did the person extend a confident handshake, look you in the eyes, smile, and greet you? This goes for both men and women. Even a cold, clammy handshake is better than no handshake at all. Again, this indicates judgment and confidence. musiknote Some cultures deems eye contact and hand-shaking inappropriate.5. Talking too much. Even though we have been stressing the 80/20 rule, there are times when a candidate goes overboard or over limits, particularly when she lacks the judgment to know when to shut up or what not to share. This usually happens when you are using open-ended interview questions and/or clarifying statements.6. Speaking negatively about past employers and experiences. Even though the story might be true, this is an indication of the applicants not taking responsibility for his own actions, or at least sharing what he learned from the experi ence, instead of placing blame on others for everything. Remember that in Gut Wrenchers, we said to keep all responses positive and job-related?7. Asking about money too soon. Granted, we all work for pay. However, good judgment says this should not be one of the first questions a candidate voices. It shows a lack of concern of the employers needs and priorities, demonstrates short-term, self-centered thinking, and is just poor form.8. Showing up unprepared. This could include not bringing a pen and paper, not having her rsum with her, knowing nothing about the organization, and other such omissions. If someone approaches a job interview by the seat of her pants, its a pretty aya bet that she will approach her job the same way.9. Using inappropriate language. Even if your culture is laid back and informal, it never justifies a candidates use of vulgarity or inappropriate language. Again, this is an indication of a lack of class, self-awareness, and self-monitoring. If he is that wil ling to let his guard down in a job interview, can you imagine what will happen with customers and coworkers?10. Being vague in her responses. A key purpose of a job interview is to delve into the details of the candidates qualifications, that is, beyond the rsum. If she is vague, nonresponsive, or evasive in her responses, even when you use the questioning techniques referred to herein, then either she has something to hide or she is just unable to articulate her thoughts. Either way, its no way11. Exhibiting poor body language. Yes, interview body language is a legitimate barometer. Beyond the meet and greet, handshake, eye contact, and smile, if the candidate slumps in his chair, or even puts his feet up, thats a sign. He is on stage.A candidate should have decent posture and demonstrate that he is alert and attentive (or at least awake) by sitting up or, even better, sitting on the edge of his seat. Leaning back, folding his arms in front of him, and other such behavior indicate s closed-mindedness, or at least defensiveness, lack of confidence and/or lack of attentiveness, and maybe even arrogance. Whatever it is, it isnt a good sign.12. Not asking any questions. Remember that in the interview setup, we said to let the candidate know that she can ask you questions at the end? When you are done asking your interview questions, you can open the floor to questions from the candidate. If she has none, or if she just asks what the job pays, then this could be a red flag. It demonstrates a lack of depth of thinking, lack of understanding of or interest in a job or an organization, or a lack of preparation, and it is also somewhat insulting to you as an employer.Excerpted from The Everything HR Kit A Complete Guide to Attracting, Retaining, and Motivating High-Performance Employees by John Putzier and David Baker.
