Is an online career opportunity search going to get you the medical revenue career opportunity you want?
News of the day: Indeed.com posted 9.1M searches for pharma sales in July, which eclipsed Monster (4.1M) and Careerbuilder (4.4M).
This makes sense. It’s an aggregator of positions. Meaning, it gathers job information from everywhere and posts it all together. Handy, huh? Maybe–maybe not…
Here’s one key point for you to remember: As many career opportunities as these sites have posted, they don’t have anything. In a tough market like we’re in now, a jobseeker will not be successful without looking for the jobs that aren’t on these sites but that are on individual recruiter sites (like ours – PHC Consulting) or tiny company career pages. Also, I would encourage job seekers to develop new, bigger networks and to work them methodically. Relying on online job searching just isn’t going to get you where you want to go. (Although that’s not the only job-hunting mistake.)
If you need one-on-one career coaching (like how to get an interview without EVER applying online to a career opportunity site or career page), or if you need help with any other aspect of getting your medical sales position, go here . (See how it’s helped others by clicking here.)
