01 Understands your Business Processes Salesforce Administrator is the key cog of the whole Salesforce set up, whose job is to utilize the Salesforce potential to meet the organizational goals. It would add another layer of challenge if the candidate doesn’t understand your business processes and how they communicate with each other.

Therefore, it is important that he/she must have a fair idea of what is the overarching objective of the products/services offered by the organization.

02 Experienced in Project Management Salesforce System Administrator is responsible for developing and maintaining the complete customer funnel from the technical point of view.

He/she should be deft in multitasking, handling deadlines, coordinating with cross-functional teams and people with limited technical know-how of the Salesforce system.

03 Familiar with Sales Workflows The principal application of Salesforce CRM is streamlining Sales workflows. Hence to ensure that the investment in the platform meets the intended objective, the Salesforce Database Administrator must be familiar with the existing sales pipeline.

In case, the organization aims to streamline an ill-defined sales funnel then it is even more important to hire a resource who is well versed with the sales process.

04 Interested in Learning new Features Salesforce is an actively evolving platform and releases three major updates in a year. It is therefore essential characteristic of a Salesforce admin candidate to be a curious learner.

There are great official learning resources provided by Salesforce and several other unofficial forums where users can learn, discuss and help each other.
