ARE YOU A PEOPLE-FRIENDLY GO-GETTER, LOOKING FOR YOUR PROFESSIONAL SOULMATES?
IF YOU READ THIS ENTIRE DESCRIPTION AND COMPLETE THE FOLLOW-UP VIDEO QUESTIONNAIRE, YOUR APPLICATION WILL BE CONSIDERED.
RENTMONSTER- the energetic, fun, and ambitious Apartment Locator Service in the Birmingham market, is looking to fill one Leasing & Relocation Consultant position immediately.
We bring Birmingham apartment communities pre-qualified residents. This service is totally free to the resident. The properties pay us a commission from their advertising budgets for bringing them a qualified resident that leases there.
The right person can make a very nice living, while surrounded by a supportive family of colleagues.
Like most real estate jobs, this is a commission-based position. You'll have control over what you earn.
We provide you with training, leads, and the hottest new tools and systems to be successful.
IT IS IMPERATIVE THAT YOU LOVE HELPING PEOPLE AND POSSESS THE FOLLOWING THREE TRAITS:
PEOPLE ORIENTED-- You enjoy working with a wide range of people from diverse backgrounds to achieve "win-win" outcomes.
URGENCY-- You tend to respond quickly and make fast, accurate decisions.
VERSATILITY-- You have the natural ability to switch gears quickly, dropping an unfinished project and moving smoothly to the next, more urgent, thing.
*If these three things do not apply to you, then read no further.
If they do apply to you, then you may be a good fit for this opportunity. Read on, my friend.
You MUST: • Like music and kittens. • Be genuinely enthusiastic about living in Birmingham and able to convey that to others. • Work quickly when a new lead comes in to convert it to a lease. • Be politely assertive and confident in your apartment industry expertise and market knowledge, to best help those who are having difficulty coming to a decision on their apartment selection. • Listen well. • Have a winning attitude. • Communicate effectively. • Maintain a professional appearance. • Be ambitious and motivated. • Be able to perform the physical functions of this position like walking large properties, including four or five flights of stairs, during apartment tours. Your Fitbit will love you. • Be willing to occasionally stay late, start early, and work on the weekends. • Make sure that everyone who works with you walks away with a pleasant experience even if you aren't able to find their perfect home. • Have a good driving record, as well as a clean, reliable, insured vehicle. • Own and know how to use a computer and smartphone like it's 2021. • Be familiar with common social media platforms such as Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat, Twitter, etc.
• Be cool.
While we're not as tough as Alec Baldwin in the movie Glengarry Glen Ross (warning: it has adult language), we have high expectations and expect results.
Duties: • Advertise apartments online. (Don't worry, we'll teach you.) • Drive prospective residents in your vehicle to multiple identified apartment communities so they can select which one will be their new home. • Opening/closing the office sometimes. • Help promote on social media as well as come up with awesome ideas for it. • Pump up the entire locating team and be stoked to help people find the next place where they will spend the next years of their lives... and sometimes their family's lives too!! • Brainstorm new ways to market the company and implement those ideas. • Answer incoming calls, e-mails, and text messages quickly.
Education:
__A PhD from Stanford is preferred but not required. ;-)
Working Conditions:
You will have a furnished workspace at Monster Castle (our office) in Five Points South. You will be surrounded by your team of Monsters, who are as much a family as we are a company. This opportunity does offer some flexible hours. Although you are not required to be in the office from 9 to 5 every day, you are required to have a burning desire to succeed by being in the office every minute you can! If you don't have that, you don't have a job here.
NOTE: WE ARE WORKING HARD TO BECOME ONE OF THIS COUNTRY'S BEST PLACES TO WORK. WE WANT MONSTERS WHO GET TO DO WHAT THEY DO BEST EVERY DAY, IN A CLOSE TEAM ENVIRONMENT. IF YOU WANT TO SIT IN A CUBICLE IN GOPHER-LAND AT SOME CONGLOMERATE, WE ARE NOT FOR YOU. BUT IF YOU WANT TO GIVE YOUR BEST AT WORK, EXCEED EXPECTATIONS, AND BE A PART OF SOMETHING COOL, WE JUST MIGHT BE YOUR HAPPY PLACE. IF THIS IS YOU, HOLLA AT US!
We believe this is a two-way street. You've got to want us as much as we want you, so stalk us first. Or at least just follow us!
By the way, if you are currently working at another real estate company or apartment community, but would like to discuss this opportunity further, please know we will keep your inquiry confidential.
If this opportunity isn't for you, but you know someone who would be a great fit, feel free to send this job opportunity to a friend.
