If you are a sales professional or want to become one, or if you are looking for a new sales job, you will face one of the toughest interview processes of any job seeker.
It doesn’t matter if your job has nothing to do with sales. There are many support roles in the clinical and health care arena that aren’t sales related: technical support, IT, field service engineers, and the like. But if you’re going after a job in medical device sales, clinical revenue, clinical diagnostics, imaging, lab, or any other medical sales area, then this applies even more! Your career opportunity search is the biggest sales process of your life. YOU’RE the product, and you’re trying to get someone (a potential employer) to buy you (agree to pay you for your time and talent).
Your resume is a vital step in your marketing process to convince someone to give you the job. It’s your brochure that tells about the product (you). It’s important that it’s clear, easy to understand, not too busy, and it should describe these key pieces about the product that make it interesting. Watch the movie scene and I’ll tell you how to accomplish that, and what your resume should look like. I’ll even give you ideas to get you started.
