We’re focused on improvement—from moving faster to leveling up the quality of our product—and our work is never complete. As DoorDash grows both in scale and in scope of offering, we are excited and passionate about building a community alongside colleges. If you’re looking to define your career as part of something greater than yourself, come join us as we launch around college campuses across the U.S.!
About the Role
As a College Sales Development Representative, you'll have the opportunity to gain practical experience in sales, strategy & operations. You will serve as the face of DoorDash in your city, working with our Strategy & Operations (S&O) team to grow our platform. There's no such thing as a typical day, and to excel, you can't just be smart – you have to be self-motivated, have exceptional interpersonal & relationship-building skills, and be analytical.
As a College Sales Development Representative, you will plan and execute 15+ in-person restaurant visits each week. These drop-ins aim to connect the restaurant owners with a DoorDash representative to pitch the benefits of DoorDash and ultimately sign them onto the platform.
This role is perfect for outgoing and enthusiastic college students looking to gain hands-on sales experience with a large tech company! Above all, we are looking for students who are able to commit 10+ hours a week, and who can take on hard problems with persistence and excitement!
You’re excited about this opportunity because you will…
- Be the ultimate DoorDash advocate by devoting at least 10 hours a week to help acquire new restaurants on DoorDash.
- Conduct in-person visits to local restaurants to actively sell DoorDash’s services, expanding our merchant base and enhancing our selection quality.
- Become an expert on DoorDash products, selling techniques, route building, and business planning.
- Work on a variety of internal projects with multiple DoorDash teams (e.g., operations, merchant selection, sales, etc.).
- Able and willing to use personal vehicle to travel, as a company benefit will be provided
We’re looking for students who are…
- Innovative. You’ll always have fresh and exciting ideas, ready to make a real impact on your campus.
- Sales & marketing inclined. You love the idea of diving into the world of marketing, advertising, sales, business, or event planning, and you’re eager to learn and grow.
- Self-motivated, positive, and team players. You thrive in a team environment, and you bring a great attitude to your work each and every day.
- Expert communicators with strong interpersonal skills. You can strike up a conversation with anyone, from a high-up business owner to the friendliest of customers. You're a people person through and through!
- Resourceful. You’re ready to roll up their sleeves and do whatever it takes to get the job done - whether that’s pitching an advertising campaign to a local business, or running to the store to get supplies.
- Organized and tech-savvy. You can stay organized and are comfortable using tools like Google Calendar and Slack to ensure you show up prepared and ready to collaborate.
