Assa started her career with a degree in foreign languages applied to international trade.
Before joining Akimbo, she held the position of Team Leader for British American Tobacco, number 2 worldwide in the tobacco industry, in the airport market.
Registered with Pôle Emploi, Assa was put in contact with Kimia, Partnership and Talent Specialist at Akimbo. Then, the procedures went fairly quickly. She was quickly convinced by the training., decided to create the Business Case which offered him a place to participate in Bootcamp #21.
What she learned from the Bootcamp
In her own words, Assa came out of Bootcamp with a multitude of new skills. For example: scraping commercial data that was completely unknown to him, automation tools, different sales methods, various technical sales support tools, etc.
But Assa has also acquired Soft Skills, in particular the development of active listening, which she considers to be extremely important in the context of customer discovery and in speaking to prospects.
“It was a very intense two months, during which I learned a lot.”
The process of the connections to get a permanent contract
Assa received 8 recommendations from partner companies. Among these, she selected 6 according to her criteria and her preferences. Throughout the process, she felt supported, at every stage, to move forward at your own pace and in a confident manner.
“I am very confident about the future to lead to a permanent contract and I should also select the company that interests me the most.”
If she should recommend Bootcamp
According to her, the training is perfect for people who have a certain appetite for the commercial field, but who do not necessarily have the techniques and methods.
In his words, the Akimbo Bootcamp was intensive but above all Very rich thanks to the support of the coaches. She discovered the world of Tech and startups, and acquired all the skills needed to start a real Sales adventure.
Obviously I recommend Akimbo. It is a comprehensive support over two months, an introduction to the world of sales, to the world of B2B and to tech. So for all people who are curious about this world, it is really a very interesting Bootcamp and which will give you all the possible weapons to move forward and to lead to a permanent contract later on.
