With offices coast to coast, Accredited is ranked one of the nation's fastest growing companies. Accredited's rapid growth has led to the need to fill key management positions with qualified, professional team leaders. The need for quality individuals spawned the concept of Accredited's Management Trainee Program (MTP).  Overview of Management Trainee Program:  The MTP is designed to take college graduates with little or no industry experience, but with a strong desire to achieve success in professional sales at the business-to-business level, and train them in the specifics of "The Accredited Way" of managing business. The program centers on a highly-structured in-depth training program that lasts 12 months and includes three to four weeks of classroom time and intensive, one-on-one, hands-on training in many of the company's loan production and servicing departments, including a rigorous four to five month field-training program.  Trainees are given valuable opportunities to meet and interact with senior executives of the company.  Trainees will acquire mentors who can teach them the intricacies of Accredited Home Lenders and business in general.  Team meetings bring Trainees from across the country to corporate headquarters in San Diego for educational and social activities that make learning more than a classroom activity.  Qualifications:  Accredited's Management Trainee Program adheres to strict qualification standards. It takes a special candidate to be successful in the Program. Do you have the skills required to meet the challenge?  Personal Traits: Accredited seeks intelligent, hard working, and extremely social individuals with excellent communication skills. A profit-oriented, professional attitude is a must.  Education and Training: The entry-level management trainee is a college graduate with a Bachelor's degree, preferably in a business-related field. No prior mortgage industry experience is required.  Expectations: The successful candidate is career-driven with long-term goals. We believe that dedication, motivation, and a desire to succeed in a professional atmosphere will help ensure a candidate's success.  Compensation:  To ensure the success of each management trainee, Accredited invests over $150,000 per trainee. Accredited offers a highly competitive salary, as driven by industry standards, and an excellent benefits package. A relocation package is made available as needed.  Relocation:  If necessary, Accredited will accommodate relocation to the office.  After completing two of the program’s three phases (approx. 9 months), the company will relocate Trainees to the city where they are assigned.  Trainees’ final assignments are based upon the needs of the company, but Trainees’ preferences are given careful consideration.  Applicants may send an e-mail to Jamie Giannoccaro, MTP Recruiting Specialist (jgiannoccaro@accredhome.com) and attach a resume and cover letter in MS Word format.  Availability:  Accredited’s Management Training Program is a highly sought after opportunity.
