 Sales engineers may spend 20% to 70% of their time traveling, and they may work a flexible schedule due to the needs of the sales organization they support.Most sales engineers telecommute or spend a limited amount of time in the office.Skills with IT that help remote people communicate better, such as teleconferencing, videoconferencing, web conferencing, and telepresence (e.g., GoToMeeting, WebEx, Live Meeting, Fuze Meeting) are put to good use both on and off the road.
