# Entry Level Sales Representative

> SchooLinks · Austin, United States (Hybrid) · Full-time · Posted 2026-05-28

**Workplace:** hybrid

**Department:** S&M

## Description

You don’t need a resume full of sales experience. You need drive, a thick skin, and a genuine hunger to win. SchooLinks is one of Texas’s fastest-growing SaaS companies, and we’re looking for our next Business Development Representative, someone who wants to earn their way into a high-growth sales career starting now.

This isn’t just a job. It’s a structured launchpad. You’ll get weekly sales training from day one, a clear path to Account Executive roles, and a team that genuinely invests in your growth.

**Who We Are**

SchooLinks is the #1 college and career readiness platform in the country, partnering with school districts to help students figure out who they are and where they’re going. Our mission matters — and selling it is easier when you believe in it.

**What You’ll Do**

Your job is to open doors. You’ll be the first voice prospects hear from SchooLinks, and your goal is to spark conversations that turn into opportunities.

-   Own your territory: cold call and email school district prospects daily
-   Research accounts, personalize outreach, and qualify inbound and outbound leads
-   Schedule demos and hand warm opportunities off to Account Executives
-   Maintain clean records in Salesforce so nothing falls through the cracks
-   Hit (and beat) weekly and monthly activity targets
-   Collaborate with marketing on campaigns that generate pipeline
-   Stay sharp on product updates, pricing, and market trends

**Your Growth Path**

We promote from within. Our top BDRs move into Account Executive roles with higher base pay and uncapped commission. The only thing that limits how fast you move is your performance.

**Where You’ll Work**

You’ll be in our Austin office three days a week. For a role built on coaching, competition, and quick feedback loops, being in the room matters. You’ll ramp faster sitting next to your manager and teammates than you ever would on a call and the energy of a sales floor is something you have to experience to understand.

## Requirements

We care far more about how you’re wired than what’s on your resume.

-   You genuinely want to start a career in software sales — not just any job
-   Rejection doesn’t rattle you; it motivates you to sharpen your approach
-   You thrive in fast-moving, competitive environments where the scoreboard is visible
-   You’re clear, confident, and compelling when you communicate — in writing and on the phone
-   You hold yourself accountable and don’t wait to be told what to do next
-   You lift the people around you, not just yourself

**Prior sales experience is a plus, not a requirement. If you’re a recent grad, career changer, or someone who’s been waiting for the right door to knock on — this is it.**

## Benefits

Compensation is $45,000 base salary + variable comp with on-target earnings of $66,600. Your commission structure rewards consistent activity and qualified pipeline — not just closed deals.

-   100% health insurance coverage for employees
-   401(k) with company matching
-   Dental & vision
-   Parental leave
-   Subsidized gym membership
-   Remote work stipend
-   Annual team offsite

**One More Thing: Show Us What You’ve Got**

We know a resume doesn’t tell the whole story — especially for this role. So instead of letting a piece of paper make the call, we want to hear from you directly.

Once you've submitted your application you'll receive an email to submit a video. Your phone camera is fine — we’re not looking for production quality. Just tell us:

-   Why you want to break into sales
-   What makes you someone who won’t quit when it gets hard
-   Why SchooLinks specifically

This is your chance to stand out beyond your resume. Strong communicators with limited experience are exactly who we’re looking for — and this is how you show us that’s you.

SchooLinks is an equal opportunity employer committed to building an inclusive, diverse workplace.
