What differentiates your service from others available on the internet?

We are the only full-service resume writing and job search company in the U.S that focuses only on pharmaceutical and medical sales industries and is led by a former pharmaceutical and medical sales rep and sales manager with over nine years experience that includes a #1 ranking with the nation’s largest medical product manufacturer, Johnson & Johnson.  What differentiates us is our extensive knowledge developed from years of client job search success, research with district managers, and total, dedicated focus on the pharmaceutical and medical sales industries. No longer can resume writing and job search companies be all things to all people. To provide top levels of service, a company must select and focus on a specific niche.

Do I have to have a science degree or background in sales or healthcare to get a job in pharmaceutical sales?

As long as you have a Bachelor's Degree (in anything), you can get a job in pharmaceutical sales. It is not necessary to have any sales or healthcare experience either. We have helped people from all different backgrounds break into this industry, and we can help you too! Check out our Myths and Misconceptions page that addresses these and other incorrect industry assumptions that could be hindering you from beginning your job search today.

What are effective job search strategies for getting into the pharmaceutical sales industry and how can your company help me to execute them?

Our company provides a comprehensive job search solution from professional Resume Writing Services to our exclusive My Personal Recruiter Service that offers direct mail, web posting, and email distribution of your resume to over 800 recruiters.

What is the importance of networking and how do I begin to establish contacts?

Networking involves building relationships with personal and professional contacts who can help to inform you of job opportunities before they are advertised, recommend you for upcoming positions, and get your resume in the hands of district hiring managers. Networking is a critical component to uncovering the hidden job market and is outlined in detail in Pharmaceutical Sales: An Insider's Guide to Making a Successful Career Transition.

What is the interview process like in the pharmaceutical sales industry and how can your company help me prepare?

The interview process in the pharmaceutical sales industry is both unique and rigorous, and it involves several phases. Preparation is key for progressing through these phases and convincing the hiring manager to choose you over the other candidates. Our company offers one-on-one, hour-long Interview Training sessions conducted by a former medical/pharmaceutical sales rep that covers all the bases and will enable you to beat out other more qualified job seekers and get more job offer.

Is Pharmaceutical Sales: An Insider’s Guide to Making a Successful Career Transition just a regurgitation of what’s already available?

Pharmaceutical Sales: An Insider's Guide to Making a Successful Career Transition is the most comprehensive and user-friendly job search and interview training manual available. Packed with no-nonsense information, this guide cuts through the fluff and provides you with only the most critical information that you need to understand the pharmaceutical sales industry, build a network of contacts, learn how to uncover jobs that are never advertised, get your resume into the hands of hiring managers, generate interviews in the least amount of time, and sell yourself during the interview to win more job offers. 

What is the My Personal Recruiter service and what is the advantage to me?

My Personal Recruiter is the job search division of our service that provides you with the most comprehensive and innovative resume distribution strategies by combining our Resume Posting and Recruiter ResumE-BLITZer into one convenient package. Or you can customize your own package from any of these three services to meet your budget and job search needs.

How realistic are my chances of landing a pharmaceutical sales job?

Any one with a bachelor’s degree and the dedication to not give up during the job search can get in and have a long, lucrative career in the industry. Your results will be DIRECTLY proportional to how well your resume represents you, how many contacts you make, how many resumes you can get in front of hiring managers, and how well you can interview. Master these key points, and you can be the next rep making between $55,000 and $180,000.

How does the Website Posting Service work and how can it actually send job openings from all of these employment sites directly to my email?

We will post your resume to what we have identified as the top 25 employment sites where the most jobs are posted and the best companies in the healthcare industry go to locate candidates to add to their sales force.  In addition, we have the only resume posting service that will activate the job search agents on every one of the sites. This means no more daily searches of all the sites to find newly posted positions, which will allow you to focus more on networking as these positions will be directly emailed to you as soon as they become available. This will give you an advantage over other job seekers in identifying and responding to new opportunities faster. You will be provided with the web sites and your personal user names and passwords that will allow you to access your information on the sites at your convenience.

Also as part of this service, we will submit your resume electronically to 20 of the top pharmaceutical sales companies in the U.S. Many companies choose not to use the employment sites. They have established methods for you to apply on-line for positions on their corporate websites.  This part of your service will enable companies to search their own databases to find your resume when they are looking for new sales reps.

How does the Recruiter ResumE-BLITZer work and how will it help me find positions in my geographic region?

We have contacts with the largest database of over 800 pharmaceutical and medical sales industry recruiters in the U.S. who are always looking for new, qualified candidates to fill sales positions with some of the world’s best pharmaceutical and medical sales organizations.  We email, to 800+ recruiters, your resume and a specialized cover letter that will define the geographic preference of your job search, sales positions in which you are interested (pharmaceutical sales, specialty pharmaceutical sales, hospital sales, medical device sales, biotechnology sales, etc.), and your salary range. All of this information makes it easier for a recruiter to match you with available positions they are attempting to fill. It is critical to understand that 95% of pharmaceutical sales jobs will not be filled by a recruiter in your city. There are, for example, recruiters in Chicago who may be trying to fill a position in Miami, Nashville, Tucson, Omaha, and Portland. This is why you need to distribute your resume to recruiters throughout the U.S. to maximize your exposure to the most recruiters. But you must do it correctly, or you will waste your time. We understand how recruiters think and work, so we can eliminate the mistakes you could make that could very well cost you an opportunity. This service is particularly effective if you have some sales experience or are already in pharmaceutical sales looking to advance you career.
