Katapult Network is designed to help college graduates with zero to two years of professional experience find their next professional career opportunity. We focus on helping recent college graduates, with no experience, get access to full-time, entry-level opportunities with some of the nation’s top employers. Our clients include ground-breaking start-up companies and well-established billion-dollar organizations that want to find their next generation of talent.

The Job:

We are currently recruiting an entry-level Inside Sales Representative to support a growing sales team in a fast-paced, team-oriented environment. This role is ideal for candidates who are curious, competitive, and interested in learning how sales works from the ground up.

In this position, you’ll spend your day connecting with potential customers, following up on leads, and helping move conversations forward. You won’t be expected to have everything figured out on day one as in-depth training is provided. With this in mind, you should be comfortable picking up the phone, asking questions, and staying consistent with follow-up. Over time, you’ll build confidence in your communication style and develop the skills needed to manage your own pipeline.

What You Will Be Doing:

  • Make outbound calls and follow up with inbound leads to introduce company services
  • Have real-time conversations with prospective clients to understand needs and next steps
  • Track outreach activity, notes, and follow-ups in internal systems
  • Stay organized with daily call lists, tasks, and priorities
  • Work toward individual activity and performance goals
  • Collaborate with team members to improve messaging and outreach strategies
  • Learn how to handle objections and move conversations forward
  • Build familiarity with the company’s services and how they are positioned to clients

What We’re Looking For:

  • Comfort with outreach: Willing to spend time on the phone and engage with new people
  • Consistency: Able to stay disciplined with daily activity and follow-up
  • Communication: Clear, direct, and confident when speaking with others
  • Coachability: Open to feedback and willing to adjust approach over time
  • Competitiveness: Enjoys working toward goals, tracking performance, and improving results
  • Drive: Motivated to grow and take ownership of personal performance
  • Resilience: Able to handle rejection and stay focused

Requirements:

  • Bachelor's Degree

Pay:

  • $45,000-55,000/year + commission + bonus opportunities

Benefits:

  • 401(k)
  • 401(k) matching
  • Dental insurance
  • Health insurance
  • Health savings account
  • Life insurance
  • Paid time off
  • Parental leave
  • Professional development assistance
  • Referral program
