When I am in the office, I am consulting with my manager and fellow salespeople, following up with customers, updating my activities, doing advanced training and role-plays, and setting up appointments for the weeks to come. When I travel to my territory, I am out on the road visiting manufacturers, solving applications, generating new business, and consulting with customers to help them advance their processes.†- Adam N., Senior Sales ExecutiveI will never forget one of the joint sales calls I went on during training. While we were demonstrating our products this engineer comes in with a cylindrical fan and tells me that there is no way I will be able to solve their application…. Within five minutes I had solved an application that had baffled their engineers for two years.†Ryan B., Sales LeaderWorking as a sales representative for Keyence can be like watching hours of the Discovery Channel because every day brings a new facility, a new process, a new experience. It is hard work, but every morning my anticipation is equal to an elementary field trip; I may not know what exactly the day will hold, but I am always positive it will be different….†Michael W., Sales Executive“When I joined Keyence right out of college, I was still figuring out what I wanted to do. But, by choosing Keyence, I joined a company that has constantly challenged me.
