Account Executive (No Cold Calling)

One of our clients in the health insurance industry is looking to hire Account Executives for their Chicago Loop location.

There is NO COLD CALLING and they are open to entry-level graduates. All calls will be inbound (phone rings and you pick it up).

The base salary is approximately $42,000. We typically see first year employees making $70,000-$100,000 plus strong benefits, including health insurance and a 401k.

I know most people think, "What's the catch?" We've already placed candidates at the company. The "catch" is they're extremely selective and you will be on the phone a lot with individuals (this is a B2C sales, not a B2B). If you don't like being on the phone, this is not going to be the right job for you.
