About Achieve Test Prep

Most working adults find it challenging to overcome the many obstacles associated with obtaining their college degree. We serve as advisors, teachers, tutors, and mentors, helping our customers, primarily healthcare workers, be more successful at college and on the job. We utilize non-traditional methods, like testing out of college credits via the credit-by-exam process, similar to Advanced Placement (AP) tests, and provide wrap-around services that build confidence, motivation and discipline.

Why work for us?

Founded in 2008 in the U.S., Achieve is a 100% remote company that hires the best candidates from around the world. Become an integral part of a work culture that is diverse, flexible, collaborative, and compelling. We are a growing company that provides financial security with opportunities for professional growth as well as the ability to: 

  • Work entirely from the comfort of home 
  • Set your own work schedule
  • Earn a competitive compensation commensurate with your location
  • Know that your ideas and opinions are important and will be heard
  • Help change lives through education

At Achieve, you are guaranteed to make a difference everyday—both in the work you complete and in the lives of our customers.

Achieve is an equal opportunity employer that is committed to diversity in its workforce. We post our open positions on multiple job boards, in an effort to attract candidates who represent different backgrounds, experiences, identities, and perspectives.

We believe this well rounded approach positions Achieve to make employment-related decisions based exclusively on job-related qualifications, without disregarding applicants because of their race, color, national origin, religion, gender, age, marital status, disability, veteran status, citizenship status, sexual orientation, gender identity, pregnancy, genetic information, mental health or any other status protected by law.

About The Role

We are currently seeking a talented individual with sales experience to join us as an Appointment Setter. In this role, you will be responsible for booking appointments for our Sales Representatives. It's important to note that there is no cold calling involved, as all leads have inquired via our marketing efforts. However, don't underestimate the challenge of booking appointments; you must still possess the ability to qualify customers and effectively communicate the value of our services. Both inbound and outbound calls will be part of your responsibilities, and each call is an opportunity to make a sale by securing an appointment. As an experienced salesperson, you likely understand the nuances involved in this process.

In terms of compensation, this position offers an hourly rate along with incentives. Your earning potential increases based on your performance, as you will be rewarded for every appointment you book, regardless of whether the prospect ultimately enrolls or not.

Desired Skills and Experience:

  • Strong fluency in spoken and written English.
  • Flexible schedule within the hours of Monday to Sunday, from 9 am to 9 pm EST.
  • Strong work ethic, consistently demonstrating a serious approach to job performance and outperforming colleagues.
  • Ability to quickly establish rapport with strangers and make them feel comfortable, even in tense situations.
  • Positive attitude, with a natural inclination to have a positive impact on those around you in the workplace.
  • Understanding of people and the human mind, particularly how and why people make decisions. Each phone call will present both challenges and rewards as you uncover the needs of prospective customers.
  • Motivation by financial incentives, driven to not only achieve but exceed earnings.

To apply, please complete our online application and screening questionnaire.
