Job Responsibilities My job responsibility to seek out new customers and deal with orders from current ones. Job Requirements I took a BA with a major in politics 25 years ago at the University of Manitoba. The classes and professors were so-so at best. The workload wasn't too bad. Uppers Convincing a new customer to place an order, and delivering it to them. Downers getting rejection after rejection, or no reply at all. Lifestyle The work hours are 8:30 to 4:30 Monday-Thursday and 8:30-12:30 on Friday. There's no business travel or company social events for me. It's a very diverse company. The main element for job seekers is that business is slow. Compensation I am paid $30,000 per year plus $300.00 a month as a car allowance. There is a small health benefit plan. No stock options. Advice to Jobseekers Stay away from this company. It's not stable. This Account Manager career survey is just one of 1000s of exclusive career surveys available on Vault.
