A stated on the Vetassess website, an ICT Sales Representative develops and converts sales opportunities into sales of computer hardware, software and ICT services. Highly relevant fields of study would include disciplines relevant to information and communication products, such as computer science and information technology. Other major fields of study such as marketing, accounting, or finance will be considered on a case-by-case basis if the employment is highly relevant and there is a clear connection between the major field of study and the products/services sold. The ICT products sold are typically targeted at enterprise (corporate) or public sectors and would normally be expected to constitute business solutions rather than be off-the-shelf products. The role requires in-depth, specialised knowledge in ICT to assess the needs of client organisations, explain the goods and services in detail, and engage in appropriate reporting and business planning. ICT Sales Assistants, who sell computing and telecommunications related goods and services in retail and wholesale establishments, are elsewhere classified in ANZSCO at a lower skill level than ICT Sales Professionals.
