Basic Eligibility Criteria & Skills Required to Apply for a Business Development Job in Mumbai

For a career in business development, interested candidates must fulfil the criteria mentioned below.

1) Education

Typically, a majority of candidates who fashion a career in business development and sales possess a bachelor’s or master’s degree in business administration, with of course, a business-related specialization.

The important point to note here is that educational eligibility will change from company to company. For instance, a huge chunk of companies usually prefer candidates who have completed their masters as they’re taught advanced and industry-specific skills.

2) Experience

The thing about work experience in a business development role — it’s not absolutely necessary. Having said that, those who join a business development role usually have work experience that spans between 1 to 3 years.

For this career, it’s usually better to have some work experience as it may help edge out entry-level candidates.

3) Skills

The amount of competition for jobs, especially business development, is huge. So, it always helps to have additional skills which might prove to be an advantage when competing with others for the same business development job in Mumbai.

Employers usually cherry pick candidates who possess unique skills, those that meet the market and industry standards. If you’re invested in landing a business development role in Mumbai, then you should absolutely try your best to develop or hone some or all of the skills mentioned below.

Good business knowledge
Organisational skills
Good communication skills
Tact and diplomacy
Creativity
Good interpersonal skills
Problem-solving skills
Negotiation skills

Of course, to excel in a business development role, or professionally, there are other things you must be aware of apart from meeting the eligibility criteria mentioned above. Let’s look at each and every of the “must-haves” for a Mumbai business development vacancy.

A) Uncompromised motivation throughout your business development career

Truth about a business development vacancy, or any vacancy for that matter is that excelling in the role, consistently achieving targets, day in day out, whilst staying motivated at all times is easier said than done.

The fact about business development jobs in Mumbai or sales jobs is that they’re categorised as quota-carrying jobs, where the pressure is tremendous. Needless to say, this becomes sort of a deterrent for many in business development roles; in fact, many who’ve already had a slice of business development responsibilities may say that the job is extremely daunting.

But, then again, what job isn’t? For a business development aspirant, it’s extremely important to inculcate and develop certain skills and habits from the get-go so that work productivity levels are always high, and there is never a risk of a burnout, regardless of the work pressure, stress, or mounting expectations.

You know it, we know it — with lines fading between life and work, personal pains, and professional responsibilities, it’s easy to lose sight of what's important and what’s not. Too often are people engrossed in the monotonous hustle-bustle that they set aside their priorities.It’s before such times come around when candidates have to take a step back and remind themselves everyday of their short- and long-term goals.

No matter the monotony of the business development roles and responsibilities, you need to pause and see that the monotony and dread that accompanies the role isn’t a bad thing after all. That it’s the elemental necessity that catapults your focus and goals forward.

B) Enhance your business development dexterity

Walk up to any business development professional, be it a fresher or a veteran, and they’ll tell you that to succeed in the role you need a certain set of skills in sales. If you’re clueless about what’s being said here or feel that you don’t have the prerequisite skills, but don’t want to give up on your business development career, then don’t worry just yet because most business development professionals have been in the same boat as you.

Most would perhaps even admit that they weren’t much in the know about the industry. But what they will not deny is the fact that they worked hard and picked up nifty skills along the way to be who they are today, doing what they do best.

Build your dexterity and keep flexing them most would say — the sooner, the better. It will be the secret recipe for a successful career in business development. And you know what’s the best part about learning such skills as you progress into your career? You can always apply them in your life or at any other company or industry; skills in business development and sales once picked up are transferable.

C) Do things differently

And by that we of course mean following the playbook, yes, but also bringing your original train of thought, uniqueness and everything else that defines you.

The businessworld requires people who think on their feet and possess analytical abilities. Even if you’ve been mentored by a business development veteran, there’s no guarantee that whatever you’ve been taught will translate into success. But if you couple it with your own craft and guile, then you can truly impact everything you handle. And that’s what today’s organizations want — a disruptor that brings something new to the table, every single time.
