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.
The Boston Globe’s list of the Top Medical Device Companies includes giants like Thermo Fischer Scientific (at $9,746.4 million in revenue) to smaller companies like Palomar Laboratory Technologies (at $122.9 million). In between are PerkinElmer, Zoll Pharmaceutical Corp., and Cynosure.
If you’re looking for a job in pharma device sales, those kinds of lists are great resources, but you should go one step further and really think about whether you want to work for a big corporation or a smaller company. Bigger companies are perceived to be more stable, provide lots of opportunities for advancement, and offer amazing benefits, but often suffer from a got to micromanage sales reps. Smaller companies have a perceived instability and uncertainty because of their size, but that’s usually not so. Also, you can have more flexiblity and independence with a smaller company.
A pharma sales headhunter (like myself) is an excellent resource for industry information like this. If you’d like to submit your information to PHC Consulting to learn more about our opportunities in the medical device sales field, click here.
