Curiosity and resourcefulness. You take initiative and find a way forward.
High coachability and the ability to quickly turn feedback into action.
Commitment to continuously developing your sales skills and investing in your craft.
Strong communication, organization, prioritization, and time-management skills.
1-2 years of sales, business development, prospecting, or related experience is an asset.
