My number one goal: to provide value to your students and your school!

My main goal is to work with schools in the area to impact you and your students. I have worked with many schools in the area!

•  Rutgers University has had us hold campus tables 8 times this semester to let their students know about the great opportunity, especially since one of our students on the team has won a scholarship through us 2x in a row! NJIT also had me run a campus table, emailed their full student body about our program, and has invited me to give business lectures to their students.

•  Essex County School of Technology had me do a guest lecture with their senior business class, and their CTE advisor approved us as a senior internship for their students. Parsippany Hills High School posted about us on their instagram account!

•  We are also partnered on Handshake and we are working closely with Seton Hall University, CCM, the College of Saint Elizabeth, Kinnelon High School, and many more.

The most popular ways that I have worked with schools such as Caldwell Tech, NJIT, Seton Hall, Rutgers, Kinnelon HS, local DECA chapters, as well as many others:

• Information and recruiting tables at senior/junior lunches

• Employer panels, guest lectures, and workshops

• Sharing our paid-internships through job-postings, emails to students, and fliers

• Volunteering to help set up a school’s career fair, business clothing drive, DECA event, & other volunteer opportunities.

• Social media posts on school accounts, permission to draw sidewalk chalk or hang up posters, or Naviance / Handshake / job board posts about our paid internship and scholarship opportunities

Our positions:

• We have two positions we are accepting applications for. The first is our entry-level sales representative position, with a pay of $22.00 base-appt (guaranteed regardless of sales).
• The second is our social media receptionist position, with a pay of $15/hour. We are more-so accepting applications for our sales representative position.
• Note: students must be at least 17 years old to be considered.

Skills For Life:

• All of our accepted applicants complete a one-time, 2-3 day training seminar.
• The seminar is the same training used in classrooms at Purdue and the University of Calgary. It is a college-accredited formalized business training seminar. We have been in over 40 college textbooks and 8 case studies.
• We work with students of all different majors and interests (like business, pre-med, engineering, psychology, and many more) because the skills they learn are very transferable (ex: time management, communication, networking, public speaking, working with people, having a goal oriented mindset, and learning how to sell themselves)
• We focus on teaching our teammates skills like time-management, public speaking, communication, marketing psychology, networking.
• We offer many avenues for growth: advancement opportunities, career opportunities, workshops, and personal coaching. Our representatives even have the opportunity to earn a letter of recommendation from our CEO.

Our Organization:

• Vector has been awarded as the #1 best job for students by College Magazine, the #12 best company to work for by USA Today, DECA’s national advisory board partner in 2017, among many other awards.
• My New Jersey Division has awarded 24 students with scholarships in the last 10 years. Our New Jersey Division performs within the top 6% of performers in the company. 
• We have a leadership program for our top-students called Leadership Academy, where we teach our students personal, professional, emotional, and financial growth skills.

A few of my favorite aspects of our program:

• Our positions can be worked both virtually and/or in person (our offices are in Livingston and Paramus, so students who live far often work virtually)
• We are a direct-sales company. There are no start-up costs, no cold-calling, no door-to-door, or anything like that.
• Our representatives are given a guaranteed pay regardless of sales. The earn large bonuses for the sales that they make. My first summer working here, I earned over $4000 in sales bonuses working only 10 hours a week.
• We offer completely flexible schedules for our teammates once they complete their training.
