From the Author

Congratulations! By reading this book, you have made a decision to better your life by bettering your career satisfaction and financial situation.

I have been in medical sales as a top-performing Sales Representative, Field Sales Trainer and District Sales Manager for Johnson & Johnson. In this industry, I consistently received recognition, prizes, cash bonuses, and glamorous trips around the world. I know first hand the lucrative incentives that are available as a Medical Sales Representative. As a hiring manager, I also know the vast number of people that are trying to get into this industry. I have reviewed hundreds of resumes and conducted numerous interviews to find the top candidates for my company. To find the very best talent, I had to know how to work with recruiters and network with various resources effectively.

I now use this knowledge as the owner of my own career consulting company. My inside experience in the medical industry has allowed me to help several people land the job of their dreams in medical sales. All of this insider's information is captured in this manual for your benefit. This manual will literally save you countless hours in trying to conduct your own job search for the highly desired position as a Medical Sales Representative.

2.0 out of 5 stars Well, it was an easy read, July 5, 2000
This review is from: Medical and Pharmaceutical Sales: How to Land the Job of Your Dreams (Paperback)
It did have some good info on major competitors and company financials. But in this quick-changing field, those intangibles won't hold true for long! As far as practical info, the reader would be much better off buying a typical "how-to" interview book. Martin Yates "Knock 'em Dead" is the best I've found

3.0 out of 5 stars General interview advice., September 4, 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Medical and Pharmaceutical Sales: How to Land the Job of Your Dreams (Paperback)
Nikki's book contains outdated pharmaceutical company and product information. You definitely have to do your own research. The interview advice is very general and applicable to any career field. There is very little advice to help someone specifically looking for a pharmaceutical sales position. She basically states that you should use a recruiter.

The book has a nice appearance and is organized well, but has little useful information.

3.0 out of 5 stars this book is only a little above average, October 28, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Medical and Pharmaceutical Sales: How to Land the Job of Your Dreams (Paperback)
This is book is different in that it gives information on how to gain knowledge about medical conventions. However,this book does not give an in-depth report of the top companies as claimed. It only lists a couple of well-known companies in the back of the book.
