Most media sales jobs require some type of outside sales experience or specific advertising sales experience; some require a specific contact list so that relationships are already built. Positions that Media Staffing Network usually is hired to fill are for seasoned sellers or managers so we often recommend that entry level candidates contact the employer on their own. Any type of media sales experience or internship is good to include on resumes so be sure to include the words media sales or advertising sales so that resume key word search tools will pull your resume out of the databases where you may have posted them.

Media Sales hiring managers will look for how an employee was able to be a benefit for their past employers, what they accomplished and how much business or revenue they were responsible for bringing in to the bottom line. It is recommended to use percentages of growth in describing how much business was grown. Hiring sales managers also want to see what was done over and above the basic call of duty – besides just servicing accounts, what you did to develop or create business. Showing that you are a natural networker, a hard worker, with the ability to offer excellent customer service enabling you to build loyal and long lasting client relationships is a benefit.

Many media sales jobs are paid primarily through commission, sometimes a salary plus commission, often a draw against commission.
