Looking for referrals for a Technical Sales Executive position that is Remote (USA), possibly in the industrial sector. Last year I made $109k at AT&T so I'm hoping to at least stay in the same ball park but want a change.

I have been thinking a role in the industrial sector with a longer sales cycle may be a good fit, can travel up to 25%

I helped during the concepting phase, was responsible for keeping the boards up to date, and wrote a lot of the supporting materials (print, social etc) but obviously I was not on the shoot or the lead on writing the script.

Sometimes I wonder how employees at my client site get anything done. I'm in a cubicle farm and I just hear so many social conversations about diets, relationship troubles, hobbies, etc. Get to work!

Told a friend of mine in tech I was considering moving to BCG. He asked me if I would have to move to Boston.
