For the first time, Vocus will sponsor and attend the National Collegiate Sales Competition (aka NCSC) at Kennesaw State University this weekend. Many colleges and universities now offer courses, majors, and degrees in selling- and the top programs are represented at NCSC. Vocus recruiters Meredith and Lindsey will head down to Atlanta for the event along with Sales Managers Mike and Jason to hunt the most talented recruits coming out of college today! The event takes place over a span of four days, which include golf, a career fair, sales competitions and an awards ceremony for the top performers.
Students who participate in the NCSC walk away with job offers prior to graduation. Last year’s winners went on to sales positions and internships at Intuit, 3M, and Reckitt Benckiser. It would be great to have a winner (or all of them) join Vocus. Our representatives will make it their mission to tell students about our industry-leading marketing software and the opportunities for growth that come with starting a sales career with us. Our Vocus Marketing Suite offers small businesses the opportunity to grow through integrated marketing. The chance to sell a cutting-edge product is an awesome one for recent grads who are driven and are passionate about sales and marketing. And our expansion offers many opportunities for internal promotions for top performers. Our top sales people are also rewarded with annual trips to locations like Atlantic City, Miami, and Las Vegas! We can’t wait to meet students from across the nation who are looking for an awesome sales opportunity. This is a tremendous chance for us to recruit on a national level. The opportunity to attract talent for our team is so great at the NCSC. Participants also have the unique opportunity to demonstrate their sales skills in front of recruiters and hiring mangers. We’ll get to see them in action!
We are so excited to be attending the National Collegiate Sales Competition for the first time this year. We recognize that this is one of the largest sales competitions in the country and we can’t wait tell students all about the best.workplace.ever! This is like my ‘Super Bowl’ of college recruiting for sales positions. I know that I will see the most talented young sales people in the country at NCSC! I’m looking forward to meeting students from several different universities and gaining a better understanding of how sales education programs are preparing students for their futures as successful sales professionals.”- Lindsey, Campus Recruiting
I am so excited for Vocus to be attending the National Collegiate Sales Competition! Top Sales Talent + Best. Workplace. Ever = PERFECT MATCH!!”- Meredith, Recruiting Manager
The top collegiate sales talent in the country is what Vocus wants to expand sales teams in Maryland and Virginia. Naturally, we are sending two of our Sales Directors to meet participants and discuss our opportunities with them. They can also share their experiences at Vocus, educate students about the product, and tell them why we are a leader in the marketing software industry. Mike and Jason from our Small Business Sales Division are excited at the chance to chat with students. We caught up with them to find out what they are most looking forward to:
As one of the fastest growing and most dynamic sales organizations in the Mid-Atlantic, we look forward to participating in the National Collegiate Sales Competition. The opportunity to interact with future sales leaders and demonstrate why Vocus is a great place to start and grow their career is exciting. Vocus continues to look for the most talented sales professionals so that we can continue to be a leader in cloud-based marketing software.” – Mike, Small Business Sales Director
As someone who joined Vocus’ sales force right out of college, I have evolved as a young professional and I am really excited about sharing my experiences with the students competing in this competition. We have some of the best products on the market and we are excited to match that with the top aspiring sales talent in the country.” – Jason, Small Business Sales Director
