SV Academy | Business Development Representative — 100-Day Career Program

They were baristas, teachers, veterans, customer service reps, and retail managers. They had no tech background and no sales experience. Today they're BDRs, SDRs, and Account Executives at Salesforce, Hub Spot, Google, Zoom Info, and hundreds of other companies.

That's the SV Academy alumni community. You could be next.

Three stages. 100 days. Zero cost to you.

Free Training (Days 1–10). Live, instructor-led sessions on Zoom, Mon–Thu evenings. B2B sales fundamentals, cold outreach, CRM tools, and a Zoom Info Certification. No tuition. No loans.

Paid Residency (Days 11–100). You'll work full-time at a partner company as a W-2 employee of SV Academy — $2,500/month base plus 100% of commissions earned. Daily coaching from SV Academy mentors and your partner company's sales leadership.

Full-Time Offer (Day 100). Transfer directly onto the partner's payroll. Up to $90K–$100K total annual comp. Full benefits on Day 1.
