Focus on learning the tech you’ll be selling. And also build up on your soft skills like presenting and learning how to effectively communicate with others!

I think the best Sales Engineers have a strong understanding of what a tech can and can't do, ideal and less ideal use cases, and the ability to say 'no' when something doesn't solve problems or puts my delivery team in jeopardy some how.

As long as you can get a grip on the solution mechanics, everything else is about how well can you communicate and if you're honest or not.

Thank you for your insight!

How did you get this opportunity of you don’t mind me asking? I noticed you tagged breaking into tech were you already an SE?

I paid to get into a cohort. No, I’m transitioning from manufacturing to tech sales, hence the hashtag.

From you guys experience or maybe word of mouth from other SEs what companies and or maybe industries seems to be thriving with SEs. I hear SEs in Cybersecurity is very much needed. What are you guys opinions?

Yea Cybersecurity is for sure thriving rn and that demand will only grow! And it really depends on what your looking for but I think as long as you stick to an established software company you should be good. Just don’t go the hardware route like I did lol.

The role is in FinTech

Please let me know if it is legit.
