Google is hiring sales executive

Since Google acquired YouTube, the company made important updates to the service, making it easier to use even with more functions. Yesterday, I announced you that Google adopted for YouTube the same strategy as for Google Labs, introducing a new service that will allow users to test the upcoming features before they are released as a final product. At this time, TestTube offers only one service but it's enough to understand the way the solution works.

It seems like Google wants to improve the functionality of YouTube with new staff, placing adverts for senior positions and sales executives at the company. The search giant wants to find employees for sales positions in Boston, Dallas, Detroit, Chicago, New York and San Bruno.

BusinessWeek reported that "the Senior Account Executive's primary responsibility is to drive revenue for the YouTube business unit and consult with brand advertisers and interactive agencies on how to leverage the YouTube platform and participate in the YouTube community," as Google said in the senior advertising position. "Google is running help-wanted ads for sales execs for its YouTube unit, indicating that efforts to make a dollar off its much-publicized $1.65 billion deal are intensifying," the online publication added.

So, if you want to be a part of the YouTube personnel, you should check the following responsibilities and find out if you're "the one":

■ Work collaboratively with your team to grow revenue with new and existing vertical customers. ■ Utilize strong knowledge of client base and agencies in your region(s) to develop high-level relationships. ■ Work consultatively with major customers to optimize their marketing spends. ■ Understand and adapt to YouTube's ongoing development of advertiser products. ■ Be a positive and influential presence in your marketplace. ■ Travel up to 50%.
