    Show You Can Turn Sales Data into Decisions

    This role sits at the intersection of sales ops and digital marketing. Hiring managers will look for proof you can handle spreadsheets, spot trends, and keep customer records clean under deadline pressure.

    1. Lead with your Excel skills: On your CV, list specific Excel functions you know (VLOOKUP, pivot tables, charts) and give an example of a report you built. If you have a sample dashboard, mention it.

    2. Connect sales and marketing: Prepare a short story about a time you supported a campaign or tracked leads. Even a class project or internship counts.

    3. Know the tools: Be ready to talk about social media platforms (Instagram, LinkedIn, Facebook) and any analytics tools (Google Analytics, Meta Business Suite). If you've used CRM software, say so.

    4. Prepare for a practical test: Many admin roles include a quick Excel or data-entry exercise. Practice sorting data, making charts, and writing simple formulas.

    5. Show attention to detail: Bring a clean, error-free CV and cover letter. In the interview, mention how you double-check numbers and keep records organized.

    6. Understand the business: Research Reeds Africa Consult and the industries they serve. Be ready to suggest one way to improve lead generation or reporting.

    7. Communicate clearly: Since you'll coordinate with sales and marketing teams, practice explaining data findings in simple terms. Avoid jargon.

    8. Ask smart questions: Ask about the team's current reporting tools, how sales targets are tracked, and what digital channels they use most. This shows genuine interest.
