What are we looking for?
While experience in the funeral industry is preferred, Envision Strategic Partners prides itself on producing some of the industry’s top performing salespeople, despite applicants having little to no prior experience. Regardless of what’s on their resumes, our most illustrious sales agents share a few distinct commonalities:
