Job boards are a great place to find out about job openings. But the truth is that some boards are more useful than others when it comes to sales jobs. To identify the best opportunities for your goals, peruse these job boards.
1) The Ladders
The Ladders is a job recruitment site specializing in executive-level positions. All 200,000+ jobs posted to the site offer $80,000 a year or more in compensation, with most in the six-figures range. Job searchers can search based on field, salary, city, job title, and company.
The site offers career advice for people seeking to enter the executive level. There’s also an option to upload your resume and receive feedback on its effectiveness.
2) AngelList
If working at a startup is your goal, AngelList is your go-to site. AngelList has nearly 100,000 job listings from early-stage, mid-stage, and later stage startups. Search for a job that interests you, or peruse a list based on role or location.
AngelList is also a great source of information on startup news, including investments, acquisitions, and other relevant info that’s important to know before walking into an interview.
3) AA-ISP Career Center
The AA-ISP Career Center, which is sponsored by the Global Inside Sales Association, is a great resource if you’re seeking a position in inside sales.
Users can search for openings, post their resume, and find resources for career development in inside sales.
4) Glassdoor
As one of the leading general job boards out there, Glassdoor always has a steady stream of sales job listings. The site enables users to upload resumes, apply to jobs, and set up job alerts. But Glassdoor’s real benefit is in the wealth of information it provides about working at the company, including ratings of the company and executive leadership.
Even if you don’t plan on using Glassdoor to apply to jobs, it’s always useful to look up companies during the job search process. Read the reviews to try and get a sense of whether you’d be a good cultural fit, and pay particular attention to comments from sales professionals.
5) Indeed
Indeed is another general job board with a wealth of sales job listings. Information about company ratings and typical salaries are available. There are several ways to filter your search: location, company, salary, and experience level. You can post your resume and apply for jobs directly on Indeed.
When you want to cast a wide net of potential opportunities, Indeed is a great place to go.
6) LinkedIn
LinkedIn is the primary professional networking site, so a presence there is a must for jobseekers. Companies frequently post job openings to the LinkedIn job boards, so it’s always worth a look. Applicants can apply to jobs directly on LinkedIn. One of the benefits of this method is that LinkedIn will tell you if there’s anyone in your network who has a connection with companies you’re interested in. You can also use the network to introduce yourself to potential contacts.
It’s likely that recruiters and hiring managers will take a look at your LinkedIn profile even if you apply through another method, so make sure that it’s in good shape before you start applying to jobs.
7) SalesGravy
SalesGravy offers a comprehensive job board for sales jobseekers. You can do a basic search for jobs in your area, or use one of the state-specific job boards. There are also advanced options to winnow your search based on industry, compensation, job title, and keywords.

While you’re searching for jobs, SalesGravy’s SG University offers a number of free and paid courses to help salespeople refine their skills.
8) Mashable
You probably know Mashable as the top online news source for tech news. But it also offers job boards, including a comprehensive search tool and a board for sales jobs. Mashable offers a tool to build your online resume, and you can set up alerts for new job notifications. Many tech companies in the fundraising stages use Mashable, so it can be helpful to set up a resume there even if you don’t intend to use the site as a primary job board.
