Outside Sales Associate - Dallas TX Office

Outside Sales Associate 

2026 Graduates Welcome | Launch Your Career with Collabera 

Your first job shouldn't just be a job. 

It should be the place where you build the skills, confidence, and relationships that shape the rest of your career. 

At Collabera, we don't just hire recent graduates, we invest in them. 

For more than 30 years, Collabera has partnered with Fortune 1000 companies to solve one of their biggest business challenges: finding exceptional technology talent. We've built long-standing client relationships, helped thousands of professionals launch successful careers, and created a culture where people are developed, challenged, and given opportunities to grow. 

When you join Collabera, you're not joining a startup trying to figure things out. 

You're joining an established industry leader with three decades of success, a reputation built on trusted partnerships, and a team committed to helping you build an incredible career. 

If you're ambitious, competitive, and excited by the idea of building relationships while growing a successful business, we'd love to meet you. 

Why Start Your Career at Collabera? 

Your career shouldn't depend on whether you're lucky enough to have a great manager. 

It should be built on intentional training, continuous coaching, meaningful mentorship, and opportunities earned through performance. 

At Collabera, we believe great sales professionals are developed…. not born. 

You don't need years of sales experience. 

You need curiosity, resilience, a strong work ethic, and the willingness to learn. 

We'll teach you the rest. 

Industry-Leading Training & Development 

Your degree gave you the foundation. 

Our training will give you the confidence to succeed. 

Every new Associate participates in our Greatness Guide, a structured onboarding experience designed to prepare you for a long-term career in outside sales and account management. 

This isn't sitting in a conference room watching PowerPoint presentations. 

It's immersive, hands-on, and designed around real experiences you'll have in the field. 

During your training you'll experience: 

Cold Call Bootcamp 

Build confidence making outbound calls, navigating objections, and leading meaningful business conversations through live coaching and practice. 

Role Plays & Mock Client Meetings 

Practice discovery meetings, executive presentations, negotiations, and objection handling with experienced sales leaders who provide real-time coaching. 

Outside Sales Field Training 

Get out of the office and into the market by shadowing experienced Account Managers during client meetings, prospecting visits, networking events, and business development activities. 

Coffee Shop Networking Challenges 

Step outside your comfort zone by practicing professional networking, relationship building, and business conversations in real-world environments. 

Client Site Visits 

Visit Fortune 1000 organizations to better understand their businesses, hiring challenges, and how strategic staffing partnerships create value.

Personalized Coaching & Mentorship 

Receive one-on-one coaching from experienced sales leaders and be paired with a dedicated mentor who is invested in your success from day one. 

Continuous Development 

Training doesn't end after onboarding. Throughout your career you'll continue participating in sales workshops, coaching sessions, leadership development programs, territory strategy meetings, and professional development opportunities. 

Our goal isn't simply to train you for your first job. 

Our goal is to develop you into an exceptional business professional and future leader. 

What You'll Do 

As an Outside Sales Associate, you'll represent Collabera in the marketplace, helping Fortune 1000 organizations solve critical hiring challenges through strategic IT staffing solutions. 

This is an outside sales role focused on business development, relationship management, and consultative selling. 

No two days look exactly the same. 

You might be: 

Meeting hiring managers and executives for coffee or lunch

Visiting client offices to better understand their business and hiring needs 

Prospecting new business through phone calls, LinkedIn, email, referrals, and face-to-face networking

Learning your clients' businesses so you can recommend strategic staffing solutions 

Partnering with our recruiting team to deliver exceptional technology talent 

Negotiating opportunities and expanding existing client partnerships 

Growing your own territory and developing long-term client relationships 

At Collabera, we don't believe clients choose staffing partners because they received another sales email. 

They choose partners they trust. 

Your mission is to build those relationships and become the first call your clients make when they need talent. 

Our Culture 

We believe careers grow fastest when people are surrounded by leaders who genuinely care about their success. 

At Collabera, you'll find teammates who celebrate wins together, leaders who coach instead of micromanage, and mentors who remember what it was like to be in your shoes. 

We value: 

Continuous learning 

Healthy competition 

Accountability 

Collaboration 

Respect 

Curiosity 

Growth 

The best ideas can come from anyone, regardless of title. 

If you're willing to work hard, stay coachable, and challenge yourself every day, you'll have every opportunity to build an incredible career here. 

Growth Doesn't Wait 

Your career progression shouldn't be determined by how long you've been sitting in a role. 

At Collabera, advancement is based on your performance, development, and ability to build strong client relationships. 

Whether your goal is to become an Account Manager, lead a market, mentor future Associates, or grow into leadership, you'll have a clear path and leaders committed to helping you get there.
