Recruitment fraud is a scheme in which fictitious job opportunities are offered to job seekers typically through online services, such as false websites, or through unsolicited emails claiming to be from the company. These emails may request recipients to provide personal information or to make payments as part of their illegitimate recruiting process. DXC does not make offers of employment via social media networks and DXC never asks for any money or payments from applicants at any point in the recruitment process, nor ask a job seeker to purchase IT or other equipment on our behalf. More information on employment scams is available here.

The Pre-Sales Solution Executive is a senior member of the pursuit team who engages early in the customer’s buying journey, often well before a formal RFP takes shape. The role owns the end-to-end solution strategy and value proposition for complex opportunities, bridging sales strategy and technical solutioning to design integrated DXC solutions that meet client business objectives and deliver committed business outcomes. Working as a peer to Sales Executives and Client Partners, the Solution Architect shapes customer thinking, translates business strategy into compelling and executable solutions, and stewards the engagement from early opportunity shaping through Contract Signature to hand-over to the Account Delivery Team.

The Pre-Sales Solution Executive does not build the solution alone, but leads multidisciplinary teams of domain experts, technical specialists, partners, governance, and delivery stakeholders to create one coherent, client-ready answer. Acting through architectural authority, influence, and credibility rather than line management, the Solution Executive brings DXC together into a single, compelling story that clearly articulates and emphasizes value, outcomes, differentiation, and committed client business outcomes to both technical and non-technical stakeholders, including senior business leaders up to CxO level. Starting from the customer’s problem rather than a standard catalogue of services, the role ensures the proposed solution is technically sound, deliverable, competitive, and commercially viable in terms of cost, price, and risk.
