Medical Device Sales Interview Process

[@JenniferQueen-k5y]

I am a spin instructor on the weekends........... and recently laid off from Pharmaceuticals. I love motivating people!! I always try to mention the 'spin instructor" aspect during my interviews because it shows that I know the value of engaging and leading people!! Do you think that most hiring managers understand this energy and see it as an attribute? The world is getting so "soft" so I do not know the correct answer. I would love your feedback on this!

[@ChantaBrite]

Your networking strategy sounds like it would be good for any job.

[@JenniferQueen-k5y]

Refreshing! You are an inspiration!!!! Keep it up!!

Loved the video. I disliked video at first, because this is more for people with no experience in the field, but as I kept watching he did mention this and the attributes he brings to the field to compensate for not having that clinical experience, which is A+. As someone who does have a medical background, I will add that a company loves when you are a user of their product and can speak on it because you see both sides as a consumer and a rep if you land that role. 10/10 recommend.

Hi! I just want to say that I appreciate these videos that you're making because they're isn't much information about medical sales and you're showing all of the true and raw content that it truly takes to become one! I'm a senior in college and I knew I wanted to be a medical sales rep since my sophomore year of high school. I am doing everything in my power to network with as many recruiters, medical sales reps, directors, and sales associates as I can to break into this position with no other experience other than 5 years of being a restaurant server. I'm absorbing all of your information like a sponge! Thank you

[@newtomedicaldevicesales]

Samantha I’m glad you find the videos helpful! My goal is to help as many people break into this great industry!

[@danaesteiger9582]

My husky/lab mix thanks you for the longer dog walks we've been on with your podcasts/KZbin videos on repeat! Thank you for sharing.

[@cole.s1442]

Man, that notebook you created is awesome!!!

[@jacobparkerfleck5366]

Jacob, nice name. We share a similar background. Personal Training. I just applied to the MSC internship, after watching your last video I think my ambitions have changed. Not to mention several people I have reached out to that are already in the industry, have all said it's a joke.

[@ryanrivera7868]

This is gold.

[@westcoan7673]

Jacob, Great job! This video was not only informative but will definitely help me in the future. I'm a 15 year veteran and will be joining the civilian workforce soon. This video has helped answer some questions I had. Keep up the hard-work. I'm sure you are crushing it! West

[@newtomedicaldevicesales]

First off, Thank you for your service! Appreciate the support and happy to help anyway I can!

[@louiemirabello525]

Hey brother! Really helpful information, thanks so much for putting this together.

[@MERTIE123]

I have an interview with Lincare inside sales next week

[@kenziedicken9512]

awesome video, thanks for the help!

[@newtomedicaldevicesales]

Glad it was helpful!

[@aarongomes1076]

I give you credit your a beast…!!! Go get it

[@newtomedicaldevicesales]

Thank you!

[@ANONYMOUSBIKERUSA]

awesome video bud!

[@newtomedicaldevicesales]

Thank you so much! Glad you enjoyed it!

[@briannamaxwell2564]

I have a Hivevue interview what can I expect? What kind of questions are going to come my way! Thank you for the videos BIG HELP

[@alexandertrammel2690]

Jacob, did you at one point during your 6 month(ish) journey to become a rep use medreps? If so, when? If not, can you elaborate? Really loving your videos here and they are totally helping.

[@newtomedicaldevicesales]

Alexander, I never used medreps! I know a lot of people who did and had success, I just never did because I believed that my networking would get the outcome I was looking for, but I do believe it’s a great resource

[@crank_FPV]

This is great. Who did you land with as I know you are in the industry now? I am in the process with a couple major companies and you are spot on. The process definitely takes quite a long time. The not knowing is the hardest part ha. Thanks for the video!

[@newtomedicaldevicesales]

Chad the company I work for is on my Linkedin ( I don't post it on other social platforms just to protect myself). Yes, you're so right, appreciate your support!

[@crank_FPV]

Yes, I forgot I was already connected with you before I wrote this message lol. This is really helpful though and I’ve just recently created an action plan for the first interview (not as good as your binder) but it went over well and I’m a finalist!:)

[@caliconnoisseur]

@@newtomedicaldevicesales Awesome video. Keep up the great work. How's your career going relative to your start now that you're more experienced?

[@spelatrobis5939]

Hi Jacob! First of all, I absolutely love your channel and positive energy you're radiating! Have you ever had to do present company's product to an interviewer (who happens to be sales manager)? I'm just wondering if this is a thing in The States as well (I'm from Slovenia and still in the process of interviewing). Any tips on the topic? I plan to make a presentation and present it to established reps I know, so I can improve it prior the interview :)

[@newtomedicaldevicesales]

Spela thank you so much for the kind words!! This is a thing in the states, but I actually never had to do this for my interview process. I know some reps had to and the best advice I can give is reaching out to reps already in that position so they can give you the best topics to spend your time on and also the best products they sell! Reviewing the company’s website and talking with other reps will only benefit you! Sounds like you’re doing all the right things and wish you luck with your interviews!

[@treymeagher]

I love this video , thank you Jacob, You didn"t show this binder to the companies until the IN person interviews though right? Or did you also make a digital copy and send it to them after the first initial phone call?

[@newtomedicaldevicesales]

Later in the process

[@dsm2g]

Thanks for your video. But all that to make significantly lower than a car salesman like by alot!. I was looking for a way out.

[@patrickmcconnon93]

What? Car salesmens barely make ends meat usually

[@ChantaBrite]

Can expand more? I thought medical device sales was top of the line in compensation and benefits.

[@brookeschmidt8482]

Also- what was your answer as to why you didnt need b2b sales experience, and how did you fix that “gap” in your resume?

[@newtomedicaldevicesales]

I ran a personal training business so I had the experience of growing a business as well as if I didn't have clients I didn't make money

[@voochic]

Calling? Who were you calling for a list?

[@tiffaniealexander]

I emailed you today. What companies are good for me to apply to just starting out?

[@waiyichan8064]

Hi thanks for the video. Regarding the book you made that took you six hours, you are saying you created it to take to your interview?

[@newtomedicaldevicesales]

Yes!!

[@verarivadeneira5275]

What is the age limit for this type of job? Thanks in advance.

[@newtomedicaldevicesales]

I've gotten people hired in Medical Device Sales as old as 50

[@lamarespericueta9741]

Who do you show that binder to?

[@Arenchilla]

What is the standard attire for this industry? Suit?

[@newtomedicaldevicesales]

For interviews- Suits. If it's day to day I normally wore scrubs

[@aa7352]

What exactly do sales reps do ?
