Customer Service / Sales

If you excel in providing exceptional customer service and are eager to learn, we have an opportunity for you! Whether you are looking for part-time or full-time work that fits around your schedule, have been looking for a customer service focused sales position that you can feel good about, or just need to make some extra money, Vector Marketing can help.

We have part-time and some full-time customer service focused sales positions available in both temporary and permanent capacities. This is a good opportunity for college students, recent high school graduates, and anyone who needs to make some extra money. No previous experience is needed; we will train you!

Our training program is so effective that anyone who wants to be successful with us can be. That’s why, unlike a lot of companies, we don’t require previous work experience or specific majors or degrees.

Not only do we offer our reps clear-cut direction on what it takes to succeed, they have the choice to move among several different career options – including part-time, full-time, and management.

As a customer service focused sales representative, we offer:

Excellent pay

Solid training – Both initial training to get you off to a good start, and opportunities for on-going training when you need it

Promotion opportunities - Advancement and pay increases are based on merit, not tenure or who you know.

Flexible scheduling – Our people are able to plan work around family commitments, other jobs, internships, or school.

Choice – People who work with us aren’t limited to a single location. If our people move for school, because a family member’s job requires relocation, or any other reason they can easily transfer to an office near their new location.

Responsibilities:

Customer service focused sales representative with Vector present Cutco to both new and existing customers on a low-key, one-on-one basis.

We offer a minimum base pay so our reps don’t feel pressured to make a sale - instead they get to focus on providing excellent service to our customers. As they excel, they have the opportunity to make more based on their results.

Requirements:

Enjoy working with people

At least 18 or high school graduate

Explanation / Answer

Answer : The quality of ad would determine the quality of talent pool applying for the job.The advertisement for elementary school teacher is the best advertisement. The advertisement covers all the details that the potential applicants will be expecting. The ad has been framed keeping into mind the exact details as sought or likely to be sought by the applicants . It covers the aspects of details about the organization, the roles and responsibilities, the compensation, qualifications/requirements and more importantly how to apply for the job. Also it provides the applicants an option to view the ratings as well.This would ensure that candidates who have the requisite skillsets only will apply for the job. The worst advertisement is the first ad ie Customer Service / Sales. First of all most of the details are repititive like roles and responsibilties, qualifications etc. However the details are very much subjective and cannot be measured.Moreover no details have been provided as to how the applicant has to apply for the job.Also the requirements section says conditions apply which means it is very vague. Also advertisement links for other non relevant services David's Bridal has been provided which is not desireable.This kind of ad will instigate lot of people even without remotest skill set matching to apply for the job as the expectations have not been clearly setand the language us very vague.

The third ad ie Environmental Health and Safety Specialist provides detailed description about roles, responsibilities , requirements but very little information about the organization itself. Moreover the details as to how the applicant can apply was missing.
