What We're Looking For

• Experience in sales, education, social work, student services, transportation, customer service, or another relationship-focused field.
• Previous inside sales, B2B sales, cold calling, lead generation, or appointment-setting experience preferred.
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills.
• Comfortable making frequent outbound calls and initiating conversations with new people.
• Strong listening, relationship-building, and follow-up skills.
• Resilient, motivated, and able to handle rejection professionally.
• Organized, dependable, coachable, and motivated by measurable goals.
