About the Academy
The BDR Academy is NationGraph’s paid, 16-week internship for students and new graduates who want to build a career in tech sales.
From your first week, you’ll work alongside our sales team to research prospective customers, start conversations, and book qualified discovery meetings for our Account Executives. You’ll learn how to understand a company’s business, recognize where NationGraph can help, and turn that understanding into effective outreach.
You’ll receive weekly coaching from sales leadership and experienced reps, with clear expectations and a monthly qualified-meetings target that reflects your scheduled hours. Meet your performance targets throughout the program and you’ll earn a full-time BDR offer in our Fort Lauderdale office, starting after graduation or immediately after the Academy if you’ve already graduated.
