Vista IT Group

Sales Intern

June - August 2019 • Grand Rapids, MI

What I liked

I loved Vista IT Group because of its amazing culture which bleeds from every employee, by doing events like video game tournaments to having a Hawaiian cookout. The one-on-one interactions that the President of the company would set aside for myself, to help me grow within the industry but also as a human being. Lastly, I loved the sales experience I was able to learn before entering my first sales class here at WMU. I was able to develop the art of cold calling, handle objections, and see the sales cycle through and through.

What I wish was different

I wish there was a little bit more training or guidance for cold calling, but also monthly/weekly reviews of how I was doing as an intern.

Advice

I would share with people looking at this company, to not be afraid of learning something new and intimidating such as the IT industry. I could hardly make a new file on my computer and now I can talk about buying or selling Date center hardware such as servers, storage, and networking gear, but still have a lot to learn!
