“In a challenging economy, organizations will cut back in every area except sales,” said Christopher Kondo, center director. “That’s why the university’s Career Center has well over a 100 companies recruiting for sales talent at Cal State Fullerton.” About 50 percent of all undergraduate business administration majors will enter a field in which sales is a major component, Kondo added.
