Job Description

Break Into Tech Sales — Get Paid to Learn (Fully Remote)

No sales experience? No problem. If you’re motivated, coachable, and ready to build a real career—this is your way in.

SV Academy is hiring future Business Development Representatives (BDRs) to join a fully remote, high-growth Employer Partner through our Residency Program. You’ll get trained, paid, and supported—while doing the actual job.

What This Actually Looks Like

• 2 weeks of free, hands-on sales training
• Followed by a full-time, paid 12-week remote Residency
• Real work. Real team. Real expectations
• Ongoing coaching so you don’t get stuck or fall behind

This isn’t a course you finish and hope for the best. This is learn → apply → get hired.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Reach out to potential customers via calls, email, and LinkedIn
• Research companies and decision-makers (you’ll learn how)
• Book meetings for the sales team
• Track your work and improve your approach using real data
• Work toward clear goals and build habits that top performers rely on

What You’ll Learn (Fast)

• How to confidently talk to strangers
• How to handle rejection without losing momentum
• How to use tools like Salesforce and modern sales platforms
• How high-performing sales teams actually operate
• How to build pipeline (the skill that drives career growth)

Who This Is For

• You’re serious about starting a career—not just exploring options
• You’re willing to be uncomfortable while you learn
• You take feedback and apply it
• You can stay focused and accountable in a remote environment
• You want a role where effort directly impacts results

What You Get

• Paid, full-time remote role during Residency
• Coaching and support throughout the program
• Real experience with a high-growth company
• A clear path into a long-term sales career
