Job Description

A Day in the Life of a Uni-Life Sales Intern

You wake up and grab your morning coffee. You start your day either at home or at our co—working office Space in Amsterdam West. You first check if any crucial emails have come in the previous night. Luckily there haven’t, but you still go through your inbox and see which emails you must reply to. After working through those you open up Hubspot. There are 15 tasks that you planned to go through today.

As you are about halfway, the sales team excitingly disturbs you that yet another meeting with a prospective client has been set, Woohoo!

You finish the rest of the tasks and then conduct research on the new prospective client to make sure the sales team knows everything there is to know about the prospect. The clock hits 12:00, and that can only mean one thing; it’s time for a break.

After Lunch, you conduct country research adding 15-30 new companies to Hubspot. At the same time, your LinkedIn is notifying you that you have a new connection or message. You briefly tend to that. To round off the day you meet with the sales team to discuss any issues and next steps. Before you head off, finish the remaining HubSpot tasks to ensure you are on track for tomorrow.

You end the day on a high. You are the power in the sales wheel. You are the one who finds energy in researching and becoming an expert in the university world of multiple countries. Getting things done is easy for you. You are someone who doesn’t fall behind but also isn’t afraid to go the extra mile.
