Professional Sales Skillbridge Intern
About Qualtrics
At Qualtrics, we create software the world’s best brands use to deliver exceptional frontline experiences, build high-performing teams, and design products people love. We are the creators and stewards of the Experience Management (XM) category, serving over 18,000 clients globally.
Building a category takes grit, determination, and a disdain for convention—qualities we know defined your service in the military. Our Skillbridge program is designed to provide transitioning service members with a direct pipeline into enterprise software sales through hands-on experience, dedicated mentorship, and real-world execution.
Why This Role Exists
As a Professional Sales Skillbridge Intern, you will translate your military leadership, adaptability, and operational discipline into enterprise sales expertise. Working alongside Account Executives, Sales Mentors, and Sales Leadership, you will get hands-on experience across the entire sales lifecycle—from prospecting high-value accounts to participating in strategic client meetings. Our goal is simple: prepare you for a seamless transition into a high-growth, full-time corporate sales career at Qualtrics.
What You’ll Do
Throughout your program, you will follow a structured, phased onboarding path: Phase 1: Foundation & Mastery
Tech Stack Enablement: Gain proficiency in enterprise sales tools, CRM platforms, and prospecting intelligence databases.
Persona & Pitch Mastery: Learn key decision-maker personas across HR, IT, Customer Experience, and Marketing departments.
Leadership Scorecard: Present your accomplishments, activity metrics, and project outcomes to Professional Sales Leadership.
What We’re Looking For
Skillbridge Eligibility: Currently an Active Duty U.S. Military Service Member with command approval to participate in a DoD Skillbridge internship within 180 days of discharge/retirement.
Core Qualities: Self-starter mindset, resilience, competitive drive, coachability, and strong verbal/written communication skills.
Problem-Solving Ability: Proven ability to navigate complex challenges, think strategically, and work effectively in team environments.
Passion for Sales: Strong desire to launch a long-term commercial career in the technology software industry. (Prior sales experience is welcomed, but not required).
What You Should Know About This Team
Dedicated Support Network: You won't navigate this transition alone. You'll be paired with a Professional Sales Mentor, aligned with an Account Executive Partner, and supported by Qualtrics Military Coordinators.
Growth & Ownership Culture: A high-ownership, performance-driven environment that prioritizes curiosity, high integrity, and continuous career development.
The Qualtrics Hybrid Work Model: Our hybrid model gathers in the office three days a week (Mondays, Thursdays, plus one day selected by leadership). These in-person days foster collaboration, innovation, and strong team culture.
Our Team’s Favorite Perks and Benefits
Wellness Bonus: $300 per quarter ($1,200 annually) to spend on gym memberships, athletic gear, outdoor equipment, or wellness activities.
Onsite Amenities: Free catered lunch/snacks, beverage stations, and an onsite gym.
Military Community: Access to our Veterans & Military Employee Resource Group (Q-Salute) for networking, community, and peer mentorship.
Skillbridge interns are paid directly by the military/DOD and therefore not eligible for compensation from Qualtrics.
The Qualtrics Hybrid Work Model
: While this role is exempt from working in office, our hybrid work model remains elegantly simple for the rest of the company: we all gather in the office three days a week; Mondays and Thursdays, plus one day selected by your organizational leader. These purposeful in-person days in thoughtfully designed offices help us do our best work and harness the power of collaboration and innovation. For the rest of the week, work where you want, owning the integration of work and life. #remote
