Career Development:

At FourKites, we are deeply committed to advancing the careers of our Sales Development Representatives. We provide comprehensive training and continuous professional development opportunities to ensure our SDRs have the skills and knowledge needed to excel at the next phase of their career. Through mentorship and regular feedback sessions, we strive to create an environment that fosters growth and success. We believe in promoting from within and offer clear career progression paths, allowing our SDRs to advance into a variety of roles, including senior sales roles. Our dedication to their professional growth is a testament to our belief that our people are our most valuable asset.

We know that job postings can be intimidating, and research shows that while men apply to jobs when they meet an average of 60% of the criteria, women and other marginalized folks tend to only apply when they check every box. We encourage you to apply if you think you may be a fit and give us both a chance to find out
