First Sales Hire Evaluation Description Format

Draft a job description and candidate evaluation criteria for a company's first sales hire, tailored to stage and motion.

About this prompt

This prompt generates a structured job description and an evaluation framework for founders or sales leaders hiring their first dedicated salesperson. It accounts for the specific demands of an early-stage sales hire — someone who can run a full cycle, build process from scratch, and close without heavy enablement support. Use it when you're moving from founder-led sales to your first dedicated rep and need to define what great actually looks like for your stage and motion.
