Daily Duties at Solunet:
Hunted for a closed deals with large opportunities (national accounts). Hired and managed Regions sales people (5 Sales and 1 SE). Grew 8 state region to $25M/year from $2.5M/year. Started and ran CLEC Sales nationally for Solunet. The CLEC business targeted some of our largest ISP's and built business cases to move toward a go/no-go decision on becoming a CLEC. Hired a CLEC Consultant in my territory who actually did all the Public Utility Commission paperwork and provided a turn-key legal documents. Solunet would then consult on the hardware/software necessary to build the CLEC. This led to larger and larger deals and helped grow the regions business and the company's exposure to CLEC's and Tier 3 providers. I sold Cisco, Juniper, Extreme, Foundry, Lucent, Adtran, Tekelec, Taqua, BreezeCom, Navini, Motorola, and Alvarion.
What they like about Solunet:
A hiring company that offers alternative approaches to pay, performance bonuses, and/or equity in the firm is very attractive to you. You're generally less interested in working for an organization offering only traditional, salary-based compensation, one with limited opportunity to acquire equity in the firm, or one that does not actively promote skill development. In addition, you are more likely to choose a company that offers a variety of internal career options, with defined career paths. You view the learning of new skills and development of your expertise as key to your career advancement. These aspects of an organization may become even more important to you as you progress in your field, and are especially critical if you change career or occupation.
