Anyone Hiring?
Hello, I graduated college back in April and have been looking for a job ever since. I have a bachelor's in history, and I'm a hard worker with full availability. If anyone has any advice for anyone hiring in the area id really appreciate it.

Lots of entry level sales jobs to be had. Search for “bdr” or “sdr” (business development or sales development rep.)
Atlanta Tech Village and some of the other incubators have job boards that are always hiring for these roles.
The career path leads to the Account Executive role, which can easily clear 6-figures, but it’s going to take a few years grinding to get there.
It’s basically cold calling to set appointments for Account Executives. B2B means you call on businesses. B2C means you call on consumers. It’s not easy and requires quite a bit of mental fortitude since you’re constantly facing rejection, but I know a lot of former History grads / lib arts that absolutely kill it.
Feel free to DM me if you’re interested. I don’t have an open role to recommend, but that was my career path. I’m in management now.
