Overview

Sales recruitment in Mumbai, screened on selling ability

Simpli5Sales is a sales-only recruitment partner for companies hiring in Mumbai. Mumbai sales hiring turns on portfolio and relationships. A BFSI or insurance candidate can look excellent on paper and still not transfer, because the book of business, not the skill, was doing the work.

We map the market for your role, assess candidates on discovery, objection handling and deal control, and present a calibrated shortlist, so your interview time goes to people who can carry a quota in your market, not to volume CVs.

The challenge

The wrong sales hire is the most expensive hire you make.

A weak sales hire costs salary, territory, pipeline and time, and you usually find out two quarters late.

01

Interviews reward talkers

Confident storytelling in an interview is not the same as structured selling in a deal.

02

CVs describe context, not capability

A big number on a CV may belong to a brand, a territory or an inherited account base.

03

Generalist recruiters

Sourcing built on keyword matching cannot tell a hunter from a farmer, or SMB from enterprise.

04

No shared scorecard

Different interviewers assess different things, so the decision comes down to gut feel.

How we hire

The Simpli5Sales approach to sales hiring

We treat a hire like a deal: define the requirement precisely, qualify hard, and validate with evidence before commitment.

  1. Step 1: Define the role

    Motion, cycle, buyer, targets and the behaviours that predict success in your context.

  2. Step 2: Source deliberately

    Portal, referral network, community and direct outreach into active sales talent.

  3. Step 3: Screen for selling

    Structured sales interviews and scenario work, not a résumé conversation.

  4. Step 4: Assess and recommend

    Competency and behavioural assessment feeds a scorecard your panel can compare.
