The Cisco Sales Associates Program (CSAP) is one of the most highly coveted early in career training programs designed specifically for future field Account Managers and Systems Engineers. We hire new Associates at training hubs around the world and provide them with a world-class, hands-on educational and experiential training program.

During the first two months, Associates will expand their business acumen, technical knowledge, executive presentation and sales skills as well as learn about Cisco’s architectures, solutions, products and competitors. The curriculum will be delivered virtually at training hubs around the world via a new, state-of-the-art technology platform utilizing Cisco TelePresence, WebEx and video.

For the remaining 10 months of the program, in parallel with their virtual learning, the Associates will move into a sales or engineering role where they will be provided the opportunity to gain on-the-job experience interacting with customers and will be mentored by one of Cisco’s seasoned professionals. They will be assigned to one of our sales support organizations including Inside Sales, Technical Solutions Network (TSN), Customer Proof of Concept Labs (CPOC), or Customer Briefing Center (CBC).

Throughout the program, the Associates will take a series of rigorous milestone assessments to test their knowledge and measure their newly developed skills. While in their on-the-job experience role, they must also achieve revenue and business goals.

CSAP recruits top university graduates that have a desire to work in a dynamic, fast-paced environment. Strong candidates possess great interpersonal and communication skills and are driven to succeed in sales. We have openings for Associate Sales Representatives and Associate Systems Engineers.
