Student Testimonials
Tell me a little about your background.
I graduated from the University of South Carolina with a business management degree. Before Medical Sales College I was working in logistics. On a day to day basis I would be dealing with truck drivers and customers to set the schedule for the next day. Based off of all my past experiences I felt that I would excel in this industry and I knew I had to attend Medical Sales College to help get my foot in the door.
Why were you interested in pursuing medical sales as a career?
I found that it could be a very lucrative career but it required a lot of work to do so. This didn't bother me as my past experiences have prepared to hopefully one day be successful in this industry. I also found it fascinating to be in the operating room with a surgeon. Having a surgeon lean on you in certain situations made me want to jump into this industry.

What do you know now that you wish you had known before entering the industry/attending Medical Sales College?

What was the most valuable thing you learned at Medical Sales College/What piece of training do you use the most in your day-to-day activities?
How to prepare for interviews was the biggest thing for me and practicing talking to people in the industry was huge. I tend to get very nervous during interviews but Medical Sales College taught me definitely how to prepare for interviews and it helped tremendously.
