Pharmaceutical Sales Website

They come in waves -- the clients seeking a pharmaceutical sales job. A lot of them pop up in the spring ... like flowers. Or weeds. I'm not sure which.

Here's a website that might help them:

This web site works with more than 1500 of the top companies in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries that are actively hiring. With more than 5,000 jobs to search
from, they claim they are "the leading career center for professionals in this industry."

I don't know that I can recommend all the resources in their "Books" section, but at least it's a place for your client to start.

Here's another resource: "Cracking the Code to Pharmaceutical Sales" by Teena Rose. If you're interested in entering the competitive world of pharmaceutical sales, the book offers resume samples, sample interview questions, and interviews with recruiters and employees in the industry.

Every Client Wants to be in Pharmaceutical Sales

The lure of the pharmaceutical sales position is great -- incredible salaries, perks including a company car, and more. But how many of your clients really understand what it takes to be a pharmaceutical sales rep -- or even get in the door for an interview?

Jane Williams' fabulous book, "Insider's Guide to the World of Pharmaceutical Sales" (8th edition) is a MUST-READ for any resume writer who works with individuals wanting to get into pharmaceutical sales -- and it's a book you can recommend to your clients as well.
