COLLEGE GRADUATES
EXCEL IN THE SKILLSTORM SALES TRAINING PROGRAM
Graduates publicly announced for the
second SPEED class, a six-week all-expenses paid sales training program hosted
by SkillStorm, a national technical consulting and outsourcing firm
San Diego, California
(August 3, 2010) – SkillStorm today
announced the second graduating class of the recently implemented SPEED
training program. SPEED, the SkillStorm
Program for Extreme Educational Development, is a highly competitive, intense sales
training program
where the top ten candidates compete for a Technical Recruiter position in one
of five SkillStorm branches nationwide. Five
trainees successfully completed the extensive six-week training program and
have been offered full-time positions in the Fort Lauderdale, Tampa and Dallas
SkillStorm offices.
“SPEED
is perhaps the single most important hiring initiative for our company right
now. The success of this innovative program has been so overwhelming that we
have planned four to five classes for 2011. We expect big things from our most
recent graduates. These sales-minded and motivated individuals have a strong
drive to succeed and will definitely go far within SkillStorm,” said SkillStorm
CEO Vince Virga.
The
SPEED graduates include Nikki Reusch and Jacob Roccanti from Florida State
University; Dave Martinez from Canisius College in Buffalo, New York; Hardee
Sanders from the University of South Carolina; and Kris Ellis from West Texas
A&M University. The graduates underwent six weeks of rigorous sales and recruiter
training
that combined lecture-style sessions with hands-on field experience. SkillStorm
covered all training expenses including travel costs to the training site in
San Diego, lodging, food, a weekly salary and performance bonuses.
The
next SPEED training class is scheduled to begin on August 16, 2010 in San Diego,
California. The timing of the upcoming
SPEED class presents a perfect employment opportunity for recent college
graduates who will face a competitive job market during the second half of 2010.
SPEED serves as an ideal career
development tool where college graduates gain sales experience in a fun and
rewarding environment during a time when the college graduate job market is low
due to the recovering economy. Interested
applicants for future classes should complete the free SPEED
Personality Assessment

to be considered for the program.
