What is it like to work in sales? (entry-level)?

Oh honey, please don't work in a telesales call center. I did for over 5 years and it sucked the happiness right out of me. It is high pressure and competitive and you tend to get overly micro-managed. Cold calling is very boring and monotonous and 9 times out of ten 10 the person you call will hang up on me. When I was doing cold call sales I would sometimes go 2 hours without anyone hanging up on me. I have also worked in an in-bound sales center. Thats a little better than cold calling but still highly stressful. If you do not achieve your targets they will put a close watch on you, or put you on an "action plan" where you have a certain amount of time to improve or you are let go. In sales, you either have it or you dont. If you dont have a knack or talent for it you will really struggle. I DO NOT want to discourage you but I just dont want anybody to go through the stress I did for all those years! regardless I wish you luck in whatever you decide to pursue in life!
