“Feeling stuck in my first BDR job”

I've been in my first sales role as a BDR for a year, but I feel stuck and haven't improved much. My training has been poor, and my responsibilities are undefined.

What I wish I knew
"I wish I had known more about the company's structure and expectations before taking the job."
If I could tell you one thing
"Consider looking for a job with better training and clear expectations to avoid feeling stuck like I do."
