Entry-level Sales Role at VC-backed startup ($65-85k base salary)

Looking for a job is f*cking hard! You send off tons of applications only to get ghosted by recruiters and to never get any feedback. We understand how tough it is and that’s why we created Tangent - so you can get help to get hired.

What is Tangent?

Tangent lets you bypass the recruiters by connecting you directly with your future colleagues. They commit their time to mentor you through the job search process, review your CVs, offer career advice, and refer you into exclusive job opportunities at their company (that’s recommending you internally to the recruitment team).

How does it work?

1. Easy Apply - we don’t make you waste time repeating what’s in your CV
2. Complete your video intro - just 1 question for 1 min
3. Connect with the Mentors - get referred and coached through the interview process at their company

Did you know?! If you are referred for a job you’re 9x more likely to be hired vs applying direct on a job board.

The role:

• Business Development Representative (BDR) at leading tech company
• A BDR role is a great way to kickstart your career in sales. It’s an entry level position so you won't need much experience, just the right attitude and work ethic.
• You’ll engage with potential leads through cold-calling, emailing and social media outreach. With a commission based salary package, your enthusiasm and creativity will be rewarded.
• Tech sales offers fast career progression. Expect to be a BDR for around 9-18 months before getting promoted to a full-cycle sales role, or moving to a different area in tech.
• Job Type: Full-time
• Salary: $65,000.00-$85,000.00 per year

What do I need?

• You must be able to work in the US without needing sponsorship/visa
• Be able to work in office or hybrid in NYC
• Excited by the opportunity to connect with mentors and get referred

No experience or sales knowledge necessary, but the companies we work typically look for people who are:

• Highly proactive and willing to learn
• Excellent communicators (written or verbally)
• Happy working in a fast-paced environment
• Natural relationship-builders
• Motivated and driven to achieve outcomes
