Your Career Starts Here.

STC Direct is hiring across the Greater Philadelphia metro and South Jersey — paid training, base + uncapped commission, and a clear path to advancement.

STC Direct hires former and current athletes for entry-level sales jobs in Philadelphia, PA. Sales rewards the same traits that win on the field: competition, discipline, coachability, and the ability to perform under pressure. We have built our office around former Temple Owls, Drexel Dragons, La Salle Explorers, Saint Joseph’s Hawks, Villanova Wildcats, and Penn Quakers — plus high school competitors, post-collegiate athletes, and club-league players from across the Greater Philadelphia metro and South Jersey.

Why Do Athletes Excel at STC Direct?

Direct sales rewards everything athletes have spent years training:

  • A scoreboard you check daily (your numbers)
  • A coach who reviews your form every morning (your manager)
  • Teammates who push you (the rest of the office)
  • Practice, film review, and adjustment (training, coaching, iteration)
  • Performance-based compensation — you eat what you kill
  • Off-season events and team trips (conferences, dinners, offsites year-round)

Frequently Asked Questions

Does my athletic background actually help in sales?

Yes — measurably. The traits that made you competitive in athletics (work ethic, coachability, tolerance for hard practice, ability to perform under pressure) are the same traits that build sales careers. Many of our highest-performing reps come from competitive athletic backgrounds.

Will I get the same competitive structure I had as an athlete?

Yes. Daily metrics, weekly leaderboards, monthly recognition, quarterly bonuses. Everything is measured and visible.

What if my season is still going?

We hire on a flexible schedule. If you are still playing, we can structure your start date around your season so you finish out the year right.

Are there other athletes on the team?

Yes — most of our reps and managers come from athletic backgrounds. You will find your tribe here.

Can I keep training or competing post-graduation?

Our schedule is Monday-Friday with most reps off by 6pm. Plenty of our team trains, coaches youth, or competes in club leagues outside of work hours.
