Company Introduction

WorldStrides is the global leader in educational travel and experiential learning. The company was founded in 1967 to provide middle school travel programs to Washington, D.C. and has grown to provide a wide range of programs for more than half a million students annually to over 100 countries around the world. WorldStrides offers experiential learning programs in educational travel, performing arts, language immersion, career exploration, service-learning, study abroad, and sports. Each of these experiences helps students to see beyond the classroom and to see the world – and themselves – in new ways.

Job Description:

We’re looking for an articulate and motivated individual to join our team as a Sales Representative for student travel programs. This is not your typical sales role — experience in sales isn’t required, but a genuine curiosity, strong communication skills, and emotional intelligence are essential.

The role calls for someone adaptable and open-minded, able to stay composed under pressure and find creative solutions when plans change. You’ll collaborate closely with a team that values communication, trust, and shared success over competition, contributing to an environment where everyone grows together. If you’re someone who learns quickly, enjoys engaging conversations, and thrives in situations that challenge you to think critically and empathically, this role offers the chance to build meaningful connections while helping others experience opportunities of a lifetime.

Responsibilities:

  • Make outbound calls to prospective parents, students, or leads using provided scripts and contact lists.
  • Handle inbound calls from prospective parents and students and discuss the value of the program.
  • Clearly communicate the value of our programs and answer basic questions
  • Maintain accurate records of calls, outcomes, and follow-ups in CRM system
  • Meet daily and monthly call quotas and sales performance targets
  • Follow up with interested contacts to guide them through next steps.

Qualifications:

  • Previous experience in telemarketing, customer service, or sales preferred
  • Excellent verbal communication and listening skills
  • Comfortable speaking on the phone for extended periods
  • Basic computer proficiency and familiarity with Windows basics like Excel and Word, and preferably on CRM tools as well

What you need to know about the Los Angeles Tech Scene

Los Angeles is a global leader in entertainment, so it’s no surprise that many of the biggest players in streaming, digital media and game development call the city home. But the city boasts plenty of non-entertainment innovation as well, with tech companies spanning verticals like AI, fintech, e-commerce and biotech. With major universities like Caltech, UCLA, USC and the nearby UC Irvine, the city has a steady supply of top-flight tech and engineering talent — not counting the graduates flocking to Los Angeles from across the world to enjoy its beaches, culture and year-round temperate climate.

Key Facts About Los Angeles Tech

  • Number of Tech Workers: 375,800; 5.5% of overall workforce (2024 CompTIA survey)
  • Major Tech Employers: Snap, Netflix, SpaceX, Disney, Google
  • Key Industries: Artificial intelligence, adtech, media, software, game development
  • Funding Landscape: $11.6 billion in venture capital funding in 2024 (Pitchbook)
  • Notable Investors: Strong Ventures, Fifth Wall, Upfront Ventures, Mucker Capital, Kittyhawk Ventures
  • Research Centers and Universities: California Institute of Technology, UCLA, University of Southern California, UC Irvine, Pepperdine, California Institute for Immunology and Immunotherapy, Center for Quantum Science and Engineering
