Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
Within this role, I managed inbound and outbound sales pipelines as well as being a main point of contact for UK customers and international customers. You’ll be part of a high energy, dynamic and high performing Sales team. Led by senior Business-to-Business Sales experts with years of experience, you’ll gain invaluable skills and knowledge during this placement to set you on a path of a super high earning software sales career.
Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
Yes, throughout my placement year I was given loads of responsibility but also guidance at the same time. The whole team were helpful and supportive and answered any questions when needed. Due to the responsibility I was given, it made the placement year a lot more interesting and caused me to develop skills at a quicker rate.

Support and Guidance

How much support and guidance did you receive during your placement / internship?
The support and guidance that I received was brilliant throughout! I was able to ask questions at any point and never felt as if my question was a stupid one. It was also nice to have past placements to speak to as they had been through the exact same year as us. Everyone was so welcoming, which allowed me to settle in quickly and hit the ground running.
