At American Fidelity, strong outside sales representatives bring drive, resilience and a commitment to serving Customers the right way. When we evaluate sales talent, we look beyond just qualifications and focus on the traits that can help candidates build lasting success while making a meaningful impact for organizations we serve.

We asked several managers what qualities set successful AF sales representatives apart:

Once hired, what makes a great sales representative?

  • "Someone who can communicate well and transparently will always succeed. If they have great energy, have fun and ask a lot of questions for understanding, they'll build long-lasting relationships with their Customers." - Jeremy d’Autremont, California State Manager
  • "If you can show your passion and energy on a consistent basis, regardless of the ups and downs of the day, you can be a great representative. Coachability and a willingness to get our of your comfort zone will help elevate you to success faster." - Matt Salisbury, Northeast Regional Manager

The strongest candidates are relationship-builders who connect quickly, adapt easily and care about helping others. Sales experience is valuable, but so are loyalty, coachability and long-term potential. At AF, we’re looking for people ready to grow, make an impact and build a meaningful career.
