Sales Trainee

Job Description:

We are looking for competitive, self-motivated individuals who have the drive to succeed and contribute to our next level of growth. We are not looking for experienced recruiters, or technical gurus. Technical knowledge is not an up front requirement. This is a great entry/mid-level position for someone eager to develop a long-term career in sales and rapidly advance to management positions.  What better way to learn how to sell staffing solutions than to actually learn the ropes hands-on by recruiting first? A recruiter is responsible for placing qualified candidates with top companies throughout the Nation. 

We provide thorough training and teach recruiters how to:

                               Utilize established, proven recruiting resources to attract qualified professionals interested in contract and contract-to-hire employment as well as given the opportunity to develop your own creative recruiting methods

                               Screen candidates to ensure their qualifications meet open positions

                               Conduct skills testing, office interviews, reference checks and background investigations

                               Present job opportunities to qualified candidates and negotiate contract terms

                               Prepare candidates for the client interview process

                               Build professional relationships with contract employees through lunch meetings and on site visits

                               Network for new business opportunities and referrals

 

Additionally we train and teach you the skills necessary to prepare you for your next role. Specifically:

                               Management and leadership skills

                               Business development techniques and best practices

                               Relationship building

                               How to develop and mentor others

                               Negotiation skills

 

  How to succeed long term in the lucrative sales field


 

Job Requirements:

A successful applicant must:

                               Have a Bachelors degree or equivalent experience

                               Be a self starter

                               Have a strong competitive drive to be the best

                               Have a ‘can do’ attitude with energy and enthusiasm

                               Additionally, while not mandatory we prefer someone with at least 1 year of sales experience.

  

Our environment is fast-paced and recruiters work in an open area called ‘the pit’ where they work together as a team to get positions filled for our clients. This creates such a strong culture that 87% of our employees surveyed say they are committed to make Apex a long-term career. Opportunities for advancement are solely based on performance, so working hard can move you up the corporate ladder quickly as we grow into one of the Nation’s top technical staffing firms.
