Hi Greg, how was your transition from financial sales to a field rep for Coca-Cola? Any Career advice?

Question

I have a financial sales background, most recently in wealth management and I’m considering applying for a field rep position at Coca-Cola. I was hoping you could give me any advice that could strengthen my application and how the best way would be to show my transferable skill for this role.

Thanks

Hi Kodwo, transition was really good as I already had strong experience in sales albeit over the phone as opposed to face to face. However a lot of this, if not all is all transferable and I was able to use my experience to match what the sales rep role was looking for. This allowed me to showcase my examples/CV by linking them into the role I was applying for.
