Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding Inside Sales Representative Jobs at Sunrun Jobs
Tailor your resume to solar sales metrics
Sunrun's Inside Sales roles are quota-driven, so your resume should lead with measurable outcomes like conversion rates and pipeline value. A results-focused format signals you can hit the ground running in a commission-structured environment.
Target Sunrun's high-volume hiring markets first
Sunrun consistently fills Inside Sales Representative roles in states with strong residential solar demand, including California, Texas, and Florida. Applying to openings in these markets increases your chances of landing in a team that has an active sponsorship pipeline.
Clarify LCA filing timing during the offer stage
Before accepting an offer, ask the recruiter when the Labor Condition Application will be filed with DOL. The LCA must be certified before USCIS can process your H-1B petition, and delays at this stage can affect your start date.
Use Migrate Mate to filter for Sunrun sponsorship openings
Not every Inside Sales Representative listing at Sunrun is tied to an active sponsorship pipeline. Use Migrate Mate to filter Sunrun's open roles by visa type so you only spend time on positions where sponsorship is confirmed.
Understand how TN status fits inside sales at Sunrun
Canadian and Mexican nationals can use TN status for certain professional roles, but inside sales positions require the role to qualify under an eligible USMCA category. Confirm with your immigration attorney whether your specific job title at Sunrun meets the TN criteria before accepting an offer.

Find Inside Sales Representative at Sunrun JobsFrequently Asked Questions
Does Sunrun sponsor H-1B visas for Inside Sales Representatives?
Yes, Sunrun has sponsored H-1B visas for Inside Sales Representatives. Sponsorship availability depends on the specific role, location, and hiring cycle, so confirming directly with a recruiter during the offer stage is the most reliable approach. Sunrun's scale in residential solar means inside sales hiring is ongoing, which supports a more consistent sponsorship pipeline than smaller employers.
Which visa types are commonly used for Inside Sales Representative roles at Sunrun?
Sunrun has sponsored H-1B visas and supported F-1 OPT and CPT work authorization for Inside Sales Representatives. TN status is a viable path for Canadian and Mexican nationals if the role qualifies under an eligible USMCA professional category. EB-2 and EB-3 Green Card sponsorship has also been offered, typically for candidates already in an H-1B role with Sunrun who are pursuing permanent residence.
What qualifications and experience does Sunrun expect for Inside Sales Representatives?
Sunrun's Inside Sales Representative roles typically require prior experience in phone-based or remote sales, with a track record of meeting quotas. Familiarity with CRM platforms and a background in high-volume outbound sales is valued. Residential solar experience isn't required, but demonstrating you can explain a consultative, long-sales-cycle product to homeowners will strengthen your candidacy significantly.
How do I apply for Inside Sales Representative jobs at Sunrun?
You can browse and apply for Inside Sales Representative openings at Sunrun through Migrate Mate, which filters roles by visa sponsorship type so you can identify positions where H-1B or OPT sponsorship is confirmed. Once you've identified a target role, tailor your application to Sunrun's solar sales context, emphasizing quota attainment and phone-based sales experience before submitting through their careers portal.
How do I time my H-1B application if I receive an offer from Sunrun?
H-1B cap-subject petitions are filed once per year, with USCIS accepting registrations in March for an October 1 start date. If you receive an offer outside that window and your current status is expiring, ask Sunrun's HR team about cap-exempt options or whether a cap-exempt affiliated entity can file on your behalf. Premium processing is available and reduces USCIS adjudication time to 15 business days.
