Sales hiring

Recruitment software for sales hiring

Sales hiring looks easy and is not. Every CV claims targets were exceeded, so the CV alone tells you almost nothing. What decides the hire is the shape of the number: what was sold, to whom, at what ticket size, in which territory, and how much of the quota was actually the candidate versus the brand behind them.

RecruiterDesk is recruitment software that turns a sales job description into a weighted fitment checklist, so the specifics that separate a real match from a confident CV are checked before you source, not after the client interviews.

What gets candidates rejected

The details Sales clients decide on.

The shape of the number

Beating target in one context means nothing in another. The checklist captures market, ticket size and sales motion, so a big number in the wrong context does not read as a fit.

Territory and relationships

For field and channel roles, the right territory and existing relationships are often the whole hire. Making them criteria keeps the shortlist relevant.

Hunter versus farmer

New-business hunters and account farmers are different animals. Getting the motion right up front avoids a shortlist the client quietly rejects.

Fixed, variable and expectations

Sales compensation is mostly variable. Aligning fixed, variable and expected earnings early prevents offers that fall apart at the last step.

Fitment for Sales

Check the deciding criteria before you source.

Because every sales CV reads like a top performer, the checklist is where you find the truth. Weight the real decision factors, market, ticket size, sales motion and territory, as must-haves, and a candidate with an impressive but irrelevant number stops outranking the right fit. Score everyone the same way and you submit profiles the client recognises, with a clear reason behind each.

Example checklist: Sales Weighted
Relevant target market and buyer Must
Comparable ticket size and sales cycle Must
Right sales motion (hunter, farmer, channel) Must
Territory match where the role needs it Must
No experience in the client's market where it is essential Knockout
Earnings expectation far outside the plan Knockout
Questions

Sales recruitment, answered.

How does RecruiterDesk help with sales recruitment?

Sales CVs almost all claim strong numbers, so the CV alone rarely tells you who fits. RecruiterDesk builds a weighted fitment checklist from the JD that captures the specifics that actually decide a sales hire, such as target market, ticket size, sales motion and territory, so your shortlist reflects real matches rather than confident claims.

Can it handle field, inside and channel sales roles?

Yes. You define the criteria per mandate, so a field sales role can weight territory and relationships while an inside sales role weights sales cycle and motion. Every candidate is then scored against that mandate's bar.

Is it an ATS or a CRM for sales recruiters?

Both, in one workspace. You track candidates and run your pipeline like an applicant tracking system, and manage your clients and mandates like a recruiting CRM, without paying for or switching between two products.

How is it priced?

A flat ₹499 per month for an individual recruiter and ₹399 per member per month for teams, with every feature included and a 14-day free trial that needs no card.
