For the sales competition, students will be selling Cintas first aid and safety products to a corporate buyer in a 20-minute roleplay. Students will receive role-play materials and coaching before the event. Students will be evaluated by our judges (corporate partners) who will act as the customer during the sales meeting.
On the eve of the competition, we will host a Sales Career Networking event on October 28th. This event is for our corporate partners and any students seeking a career or internship in sales. It is a great opportunity to connect with sponsors and learn about their companies and available job opportunities.
Note: Students do not need to be in the sales competition to attend the Career Networking event.
