How would you like a career with good pay, flexible hours, remote work and interesting assignments? In this live chat, Elizabeth Willetts talks to Rachel Chan, a recent Salesforce graduate and Community Manager at Supermums, about an incredible training opportunity designed with mums in mind.
Rachel tells Elizabeth what Salesforce is and how it ties into different industries. She outlines the Salesforce Admin Course that qualifies you to work as a Salesforce representative, explains how long it takes and what you’ll learn, and gives examples of career paths the training opens up. Elizabeth and Rachel also discuss the Supermums community, which supports people following the Admin Course. Rachel shares real-life success stories from mums who’ve found new careers and changed their lives.
At the end of the call, Rachel answers listeners’ questions. She tells you where you can go to get more information about Salesforce and Supermums, including a free discovery call and how to enrol on a free 5-day challenge where you’ll learn about a day in the life of a qualified Salesforce worker.
