Professional Experience

FIELD WORK

Sales Representative — Aptive Environmental

Hawthorne & Rockland County, NY
  • Manage a full door-to-door sales territory independently, from prospecting through close, in a role that runs entirely on self-set daily targets.
  • Communicate technical service details to homeowners clearly and under time pressure — the same skill that carries over to writing up engineering results for a non-specialist reader.
  • Prior 1099 contractor experience, with working familiarity with self-employment tax and ownership of your own performance.
