Client Testimonial
“SalesFirst Recruiting was able to bring us candidates who were actually doing the work, not just talking about it.”
Challenge:
The client needed a rep focused on new business development in a competitive market.
Solution:
The search focused on how candidates created opportunities.
Candidates were asked to describe how initial conversations were started and how those conversations turned into meetings. That created a clear distinction between candidates relying on existing relationships and those actively building a pipeline.
Direct outreach led to more productive conversations with candidates who were not engaging through traditional channels.
Outcome
- ▸ We interviewed 22 candidates
- ▸ We focused on those creating new opportunities, not relying on existing relationships
- ▸ The client filled the role in 30 days
