Matteo Roncaglia, CSS Chapter President at Penn State University, is looking forward to this year’s Summit. He said, “I’m excited for the National Summit and Career Fair because it shows what the Collegiate Sales Society is about. So shortly after joining, I will already have the opportunity to expand my network and learn from professionals.”
Roncaglia is not the only student looking forward to this year's event. Will Pelton, CSS Chapter President and senior at the University of California, Berkeley said, “I really look forward to this year’s CSS summit because of the diverse & distinguished professionals that will be in attendance, and I am excited to gain insight, advice, and inspiration from these sales leaders across a variety of industries. As a member of UC Berkeley’s chapter, I have learned the importance of effective communication, professional demeanor, and the significance of establishing professional relationships. I will utilize the skills I have learned from the courses’ content, coaches, and Collegiate Sales Certification program to confidently prepare for this opportunity, and I ultimately hope to carry the momentum from this event when kickstarting my career!”
This year’s Summit will feature companies such as Gartner, Adobe, Stryker, Fastenal, Intuit, Vendition, and many more.
“Gartner is excited to participate in the Collegiate Sales Society Fall Summit again this year as our experience in 2021 was great! The Summit provided us a great opportunity to network with top students from across the country and helped support our sales pipeline,” said Stephanie Shull, Sr. National Partners Recruiter at Gartner. “We have 2 CSS Summit attendees joining Gartner full-time and cannot wait to add more to the Gartner family!”
