Regardless of what people tell you, finding a job requires sales skills. You need to be able to pitch yourself to a company in order to land a position.

One thing to keep in mind is that it’s not just about selling your skills. You also need to sell an employer on your fit with the organization, as well as your overall value (your skills relative to your required salary).

And finally, remember your ABC’s: Always Be Closing! Treat an interview as an opportunity to “close the sale” and you will be more likely to land the job.
