Job description

Now hiring candidates that can start in January 2027!

IDR is an IT staffing firm that brings in recent college grads and early-career professionals who want to grow real sales skills and build their own book of business over time. Instead of placing new hires into an Outside Sales role right away, we start them in a role that focuses on staffing readiness so they can learn the industry, gain confidence connecting with people, and earn uncapped commission from the beginning. It’s one of the fastest paths we’ve seen to long-term sales success.

Top performers graduate into Account Management (Outside Sales) through our structured Sales Development Representative (SDR) Training Program —equipping you with the skills, experience, and mentorship to become a high-earning sales professional.

What typically attracts driven, competitive students and early-career professionals to this role is the opportunity to:

• Build genuine relationships every day
• Make a real impact on both candidates and clients
• Shape your earning potential through uncapped commission
• Develop a strong foundation in tech + business
• Work in a fast-paced, team-oriented environment

Why Start Your Career at IDR?

• Hands-on sales experience from day one
• 100% promotion from within
• Base salary + uncapped commission + monthly bonuses
• Award-winning workplace culture

What You’ll Do

As a Recruiter (inside sales/staffing readiness):

• Source and build relationships with top IT talent
• Match candidates to open roles
• Learn sales through hands-on recruiting and mentorship

As an Account Manager (Outside Sales):

• Build and manage client relationships
• Serve as the link between clients and recruiters

What We’re Looking For

No specific degree or background required—just the right mindset:

• Competitive and goal-oriented
• Coachable and resilient
• People-first, relationship-driven
• Motivated by success, money, and growth
• Integrity and a strong team spirit
• Base + uncapped commission + bonus opportunities
• Structured 90-day training program
• Annual incentive trip
• Health & wellness reimbursement
• ESOP – earn company stock
