Impact Networking Full Time positions & INTERNSHIPS

At Impact, we don't micromanage our people. We empower them. We are an entrepreneurial company dedicated to the proposition that every employee makes a difference. The proof is in our record growth and competitive compensation. Twelve years ago, when I founded Impact, I set a goal of becoming a $30 million company by 2010. After surpassing that projection, we increased our objective to $100 million by 2017. To achieve this goal, we are continuing to expand our staff in all areas—sales, service, support, marketing, and administration. We seek self-driven individuals able to thrive both independently and as team members.

Dedicated to the success of each employee, we offer the most thorough training program in our industry and insist on continuing, internal education. Our rapid growth is a reflection of our commitment to training and education. Customer confidence depends on responsible preparation, on staff readily able to answer questions and troubleshoot in the field. Customers reward this competence with their business, a dynamic that has helped ensure our employees job security and continuing satisfaction. At Impact, we sell, service, and support imaging, telecom and networking equipment. As important, we help a wide range of businesses create, distribute, and manage the documents integral to their success. Because our products are digital, not analog, every new account a sales associate creates is an opportunity to help a business ready its company for the 21st century. Our products print, scan, duplicate, network, and telecommunicate. Our sales people don't just sell equipment, they support and service it—a significant marketing edge. This practice, virtually proprietary, is the key to our upward trajectory.

Digital office equipment is a $350 billion industry in this country alone. Help us slice this pie. Know that Impact is a place where people build their careers, not just earn paychecks. By thoroughly training our staff, we empower and tenure them. That is why, from the associate level on up, retention at Impact approaches 100 percent.

A company is as good as the people it employs. If you enjoy setting goals and exceeding them, I encourage you to consider joining our high-impact team. Sincerely, Frank Cucco CEO Impact Networking

Check list for success:

1. Dress professional is recommended BUT if you are an underclassman and

professional clothes are not available yet, still attend.

2. Bring more resume copies than you think you are going to need.

3. Bring your HR Chally / SEF Sales Assessment results with you.

4. Do your research, and it’s okay to have notes written out about the

companies to have in front of you when meeting them. In fact, they are

impressed when a student has done that much pre-work.

5. ASK for what you want. The Next interview?

6. All majors are invited to learn about starting their business career from a

sales role AND these recruiters are hiring YOU not your major, so if YOU

are –

a. Competitive

b. Disciplined

c. Coachable person

Then they want you!
