The interview is often the most important aspect of the hiring process and can make or break a candidate’s chances. MedRep’s job interview coaching can help you get prepared.
In a job market as competitive as medical and pharmaceutical sales, most candidates would say without hesitation that they would use any virtually advantage they could and gladly accept help if it resulted in them landing a job. As a leader in connecting candidates to the best pharmaceutical and medical sales jobs available as well as being a professional source for valuable medical industry information, MedReps is committed to connecting the most qualified candidates to companies that need them.
Part of MedReps’ strategy in partnering the best employees with the best employers involves interview services, such as interview coaching. Services like this are relatively new in the world of medical and pharmaceutical sales and prospective salespeople would be wise to take advantage of opportunities like these in order to stay on top of their game and get to the front of the hiring line. MedReps offers unique and specialized job interview training that’s focused on specific areas of the sales field and is in communication with the hiring managers of some of the biggest companies in the industry on a daily basis, so they know and understand exactly what these companies are looking for.
What does MedReps’ interview coaching service look like?
* A needs assessment questionnaire, to prioritize goals for the coaching session – whether for a 1st interview or the 5th, a customized session will be created based on individual needs.
* A customized coaching plan based on questionnaire, individual job candidate needs and interview stage.
* Role playing to elevate confidence.
By the end of a one-on-one coaching session, a candidate will be able to articulate how their skill set matches up to the hiring manager’s needs and know and understand the difference between behavioral and situational questions, while being able to answer both effectively. Ultimately, a job candidate will be able to sell their value to a company while proving to the hiring manager that they are the best person for the job.
Smart medical and pharmaceutical sales job candidates know that there is more to the hiring process than simply an interview. Writing an effective resume and crafting a specialized cover letter can be equally crucial in getting to the next step in the hiring process. As a matter of fact, if neither of these do a great job in advertising a candidate’s skill set, he or she won’t even get to the interview stage.
In addition to interview coaching, MedReps offers resume rewrite and cover letter services. These services can also be “bundled,” saving money for subscribers. By bundling any number of these services, including exclusive resume rewrites and reviews, medical and pharmaceutical sales professionals increase their chances of landing any job!
So, is getting the help that a sales job candidate needs worth it? If you asked them, a resounding “yes” would most likely be the answer. An interview is often the most important aspect of the hiring process and can make or break a candidate’s chances. Job interview coaching and training is an advantage that every job seeker should, at the very least, consider, especially in today’s competitive fields of medical and pharmaceutical sales.
