The management trainee program at Enterprise was an excellent step in my grasp of operations and team management. The environment was fast-paced and a having worked in the busiest branches in my region, I was able to learn some great ways to adjust to the daily demands of consumers, employees and business relationships. At Enterprise, I was honored 3 consecutive months for my efforts in obtaining customer leads and my execution of sales initiatives. I was also named the Branch Captain for inventory management and control. The beauty of the program was that it also was my introduction to B2B sales, as I was challenged with maintaining not only consumer sales but also corporate account management, scheduling sales calls and obtaining sales leads.

My main responsibilities were soliciting customers to explore mortgage options. I provided financial guidance using personal finance software, data analysis and demonstrating superior product knowledge. In this job I was faced with high sales quotas both daily and monthly. In my time there I was elected the Productivity Captain and focused my efforts on increasing daily sales goals and boosting in office morale.

I demonstrated a high level of product knowledge, engaged in cross-selling and up-selling and operated banking systems to manage customer accounts, loans, and personal information. I was elected the Marketing Liaison as well as being promoted to my branch’s Elite Lender and Consumer Lending Specialist role. I operated in a small customer support team in a fast paced environment.
