Great tech sales training with solid job placement
Pros
SV Academy got me into a tech sales job I love, I've been here 8 months now. People assume it costs money, but there's no tuition and no debt. Worth knowing how it actually works: after the training period they line you up with interviews at partner companies that match your expectations, and once you're hired the first few months are at slightly reduced pay while you ramp. SV Academy's partner companies keep 92% of people past this ramp up period, so it's not a coin flip. I got kept, I'm making good money, and I'm really happy. Whether you're brand new to sales or have experience, it's a no-brainer if you're serious about a long-term tech sales career.
Cons
If you aren't serious about a tech sales this isn't for you. The effort you put into the training period directly correlates with what you get out of SVacademy. I wouldn't plan on getting results if you show up camera off, not adding to the discussions. You don't have to be an expert, but you do have to show effort and be coachable.
