Actually, I know this type of job. Not exactly, but similar I think. It's a marketing position in a technical field. Most likely you'll be assisting current product distributors and looking for new ones. This means you'll be keeping them updated on the product line and probably working on specific project oriented deals with them. You'll most likely also will be involved in getting the products specified in construction planning and meeting with engineers and contractors to work on the specifications and then bidding on projects either directly or through your distributors.

Sadly, it was just another case of a glamor job description, sugar-coating a cold-calling sales position.
Really? Cold calling sucks. Sorry.

I used to be a division manager for a specialty metals manufacturer and had several territory managers working under me. The territory manager trainee position they were offering sounded like the same thing. Too bad because those were good jobs for starting a career in. Good luck anyway.
