When the intern accomplishes clear goals in this period, he/she will be trained to make client visits for in depth needs assessments and job orders.
The successful intern will have successful experience in sales, notably in hospitality or retail. Excellent communication skills, good education record and an ability to handle rejection are essential. He/she will have her/his own transportation and will be reimbursed for mileage. The pay is $12 an hour. The dress code is casual professional. An offer of hire at ABLE is contingent on a drug test and reference checks.
