We have a question...and I have an offer

From Buck Rogers, "Do you have any advice for newbies with little or no experience..."

I thought instead of posting this in the comments section, I'd answer this here. Experience is not necessary to get into Pharmaceutical sales. It helps to have been successful at your prior career/job, but that could be anything. I've seen everyone from all backgrounds get into this type of job and be successful. For example: I've seen ex-pro football players, nurses, recent college graduates, waitresses, payroll services, ex-military, marketing majors, PR/Communication majors, music majors, etc. Hell, I used to sell stuffed animals at one point. What matters most is the passion to get into this industry, the ability to learn what must be learned to succeed, the motivation to get out into the field every day and work hard, and the success in your timing to meet the right people to hire you.

To that end, I will make an offer. Though it will not improve your chances of getting an interview (since I do NOT have the ability to help anyone with that), I will be more than happy to enter the resume of any qualified candidate into my company's system. I will look over the resume and give tips to improve it if necessary. And, I will answer questions about the industry/company that might help you focus your efforts in the interview process. My motivation is that if you get hired, I get a finder's fee. If you are interested, email me with your resume in Word format. Put pharmajobshelp in the subject line.

For your information, I will decide to post your resume or NOT post it into the system. If I don't post it, you have every right to post it yourself. If I post it, you will receive a confirmation that I have posted it from the company. If I ask you to adjust something on your resume, don't take it personally, it's just my opinion. You can email me back and tell me to post it "as is". If I disagree with you, once again, don't take it personally.

Hope that helps. Any other questions?
