As companies are speeding up their technology adoption to keep up with fast changing client needs and new remote working models resulting in the exponential growth of Salesforce. With the growth of Salesforce, the demand for skilled Salesforce professionals is on a rise!

Salesforce is anticipated to create 4.2 million jobs globally by 2024, according to a recent report by IDC. By 2024, the company aims to create 548,400 direct jobs in India alone. And a quick search on Naukri.com reveals that there are 62000 Salesforce Developer jobs available.

Here are the roles and responsibilities of a Salesforce Developer,

  • Seamless integration with third party systems, Creation of mobile, web applications, identification of business processes, and maintenance of user roles to ensure no security breaches will also be a major part of your job roles.

IT career optionsEssential skills to build a career in Salesforce

While you don’t need a strong coding background, there are certain skill sets that are required to be an efficient Salesforce Developer. And learning the skills and building the right expertise will help you leverage all the opportunities in the domain.

Here are a few must-have technical as well as soft skills to launch a career in Salesforce,

 Soft Skills

Even if Salesforce has ‘sales’ in its name, it is not a sales job. Rather, it is an IT job with minimal to no coding requirements.
