Tailor your resume for a Sales Manager job
Sales resumes are read for quota attainment first — the number against the target — then for what you sold, to whom, and how you led.

What Sales Managerrecruiters & ATS look for
- Quota attainment (% of target) across multiple periods
- Deal size, sales cycle, and the segment (SMB, mid-market, enterprise)
- What you sold and to which industry, matched to the ad
- CRM and methodology (Salesforce, MEDDIC, Challenger) where relevant
- Team leadership and ramp for management roles
Common Sales Manager resume mistakes
- No quota numbers — a sales resume without % of target reads weak
- Vague "exceeded targets" without the figure
- Not matching the segment/industry the role sells into
ATS tip: Open bullets with attainment — "127% of a $2.4M quota" — and name the segment and CRM from the ad.
