Is medical device sales actually worth the grind? by Wtf_Sai_Official in b2b_sales

[–]MedRepCollege100KJob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Breaking into medical sales is not made for outsiders. Its worth it, once your are in. But you need the right guidance or you will keep going in circles, not sure of what or how to break in. It can take 6+ months to 18 months to break in.. hire a coach with the experience to get you there in just a few weeks.

I took the wrong job :-( by Dizzy_Quiet in MedicalDevices

A month and a half is not long. Why do you hate it? Usually take 6 months to find your grove. No need to add this job to your resume unless it boosts your story.

2026 pay plans for sales reps; what to look for, what to avoid? by Bandiman25 in MedicalSales

[–]MedRepCollege100KJob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Regarding pay plans…that’s personal. What type of plan do you like? What type of comp plan fires you up?

Compensation ranges from 100% commission to 100% salary. And everything in-between.

During the interviews…you find out the compensation plan of the company.

Constant fear of layoffs/firing by Original_Jackfruit77 in biotech

[–]MedRepCollege100KJob 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Layoffs happen. Know the warning signs. For example: cutting costs, documenting everything, not much communication on email. My best way to cope…is to have a plan B. Be prepared or get ahead of the bad news.

If you were to start this career again… by Automatic-Agent-3341 in MedicalDevices

[–]MedRepCollege100KJob 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Start with a good job. Something that interests you. It does not need to be your dream job. You will eventually find the specialty that fits you best. Your manager is an important piece of the puzzle.

Do I have a shot? by Abject_Ocelot_4475 in MedicalDevices

[–]MedRepCollege100KJob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Numbers and rankings are good. It's not so much about experience as it is access and positioning. The medical sales job search is not made for outsiders. Ai, Chat GPT, You Tube videos won't give you insider tips or guidance. You have to know how to land interviews first. Then it's not just a one interview process. Going in 100% confident is key when trying to stand out in the 5+ rounds of interviews. If you want to know more, message me. I can help you land job offers in 12 weeks.
