It's that time again...

I applied for two positions and I am now starting to get the interviews coming in. So far I have one on Friday. This is the one that I'm a little more nervous about, the one that would be more of a challenge, probably involving learning as I go. I want it, though.

"Corporate Development is seeking a sales-oriented individual to provide support for the Strategic Partnerships group. This person will coordinate and manage lead generation for the sales team, manage ACT system, develop sales reports, and investigate new sales opportunities. The coordinator will also provide assistance handling inbound sales inquiries, mailing out sales collateral, following up with prospective partners, and contract management. This role may also require travel to trade shows.

The ideal candidate will be a sales-oriented multitasker with outstanding organizational ability. Advanced skills in MS Office and ACT, a bachelor's degree, and 2 or more years of experience in administrative support for a high-tech sales organization are required. This position will report to the director of strategic partnerships."

I'd have to learn ACT. I don't really know it. I've seen it. I've used it once or twice, but I don't *know* it.

The other one would be easier, I'm pretty sure, but I think it would be interesting as well. If I got that one, I would mainly be the person who sets up interviews and looks at reumes and cover letters and decides who to let have an interview and the like. Both interesting jobs.

ACT is cake. You'll pick it up in no time... I had to actually write a training doc for it for a prior joba nd I'd never used it.. so I sat down and fiddled with it for an hour and then wrote the training doc. My boss, who's used ACT for years said it was great!

I wouldn't worry about that aspect.
