Microsoft is hiring an account executive and I’m really interested in the role. I have B2B sales experience in a different industry, but my skills include lead generation, prospecting, account management, negotiating, etc (all within the C Suite and other decision makers).
Would appreciate knowing if this is something I have a shot at with no tech sales experience and what I could expect for promotional opportunities and compensation.
Thanks for the help!
MSFT or AWS? As Tech Pre Sales and why?

Personally, I would advise against mps / print sales, if you have other options.
I'm a long time office equipment (and yes, we sell mps) sales rep, wanting to get into software / cloud sales, and I'm not certain it's helping. I could have other issues, of course, but my recommendation stands- if I was just starting out, I would try to get any kind of software sales or managed services position to gain actual SaaS or whatever experience.
Good luck!
