AlwaysHired

With zero tech sales background, I was struggling to get my foot into the industry. It’s safe to say Always Hired was the answer to my prayers. Their tech sales bootcamp is definitely not for the faint of heart. Unless you’re thick skinned and strong... Read More minded, you most likely won’t survive (scary but true #SalesWorld101). Gabe and his team at Always Hired have brilliantly tailored an intensive yet super resourceful program that will 100% help those with their heart and mind set on the tech industry. One of my favorite lessons was learning about the different sales stack commonly used such as Salesforce, Slack, LeadIQ, Outreach, Crunchbase Pro and more. In less than 2 months, I was able to not only gain a tremendous amount of tech sales knowledge, but to also secure a job with an international-level, rapidly growing tech startup with excellent reputation. You can keep making excuses or you can make it happen. Thank you Always Hired!

Gabe was able to provide very specific training to both myself and a cohort; we were able to pick up speed from being fairly new to the SDR industry, into having an understanding of the sales process as a whole, as well as the technology stack (CRM's,... Read More Outreach, LeadIQ, and others).

In addition, there is a large emphasis on being able to understand the tools and where they do / don't work, to avoid reliance on the tools and focus on gaining skillsets that are a higher priority in the sales cycle (grit, persistence, listening skills).

Overall Gabe is, and continues to be, an immense help. His alumni also acts as a large support group and indicates the learning doesn't stop outside of the classroom.

A well-structured program giving you an end result you'll be happy and proud with. The team at AH are second to none. They all care about the students, they've built a wonderful community to bounce ideas off of and are always available to answer and help... Read More out when an alumnus needs it.

After a number of years working on the technical side of the industry, I made the decision to come over to the dark side and give tech sales a shot. I couldn't have made a better decision that going through AlwaysHired to get the training, network, coaching,... Read More and professional development I needed to succeed. By the end of the first week of the bootcamp, I already had two offers on the table, within three months of starting in a pre-sales role, I was the top-performing rep at the company, and within 9 months, had been moved into the sales team, all without having had any prior experience in sales or sales development.

In addition, the opportunity to be part of the AlwaysHired alumni community continues to provide opportunities for collaboration, further improvement, and a heck of a great time.

I owe my current career, in exclusivity, to the hard, patient work of Gabe and the AH team.

Regardless of the background you're coming from, regardless of your experience with sales, I have yet to come upon any bootcamp in the sales market that I would recommend more highly than AlwaysHired

Pros:

Every minute and hour of each day was carefully planned out in an organized fashion.
The instructors were extremely knowledgeable and helped us tirelessly until we got a job offer.
We had real cold calling experience with real companies.

Cons:

Would... Read More liked to have had more days of cold calling.

From the day of the interview to the first day of class, in my mind, Gabe has had one goal in mind. To push, motivate, and teach you to become the best sales professional with the ultimate goal of getting that job you've always dreamed about. He is stern... Read More but professional, assertive but nurturing, and most importantly, extremely knowledgeable. He is engaging, confident, and hard at times but open to feedback and interaction.

I don't think everyone can become a sales person. I think people that are good at selling have a little chip on their shoulder and a spark in their personality that makes them excel at sales. I think Gabe is good at gaging who will be a great sales person and he chooses wisely who he'll let into his boot camp. Then he teaches his brilliant methods, (metaphorically) kicks your butt when you are being ridiculous, and lets you into the wild with the tools needed to succeed.

Brandon... what a kind soul he has. One of those people you meet and instantly admire so much because of the positivity he exudes. Not only is he an admirable human being but also an excellent teacher and mentor. I am, without a doubt, a better sales person because of him.

And last, but certainly not least, Joe. The coolest dude you'll ever meet. There is no doubt I wouldn't have landed the job I did without his great guidance and feedback.

I, without hesitation or indecision, 100% recommend Gabe, his team, and AlwaysHired.
