Tell me a little about your background.

I have a bachelors in Finance and worked as an accountant for 6 months prior to finding this program.

Why were you interested in pursuing medical sales as a career?

I always knew I wanted to pursue a career in the healthcare field, after working in the accounting field for 6 months, I knew I couldn't do that for the rest of my life. So, I was searching for jobs that I could do within the medical field while having a finance degree. After hearing about medical sales as a career, I knew that was the perfect job for me.

What ultimately made you decide to attend?

I read all the testimonials from prior students and I knew that it would be a good investment.

Please describe your training experience at Medical Sales College.

Medical Sales College was very demanding, some weeks were a lot harder than others but the teachers were absolutely amazing and they taught me so much.

Why should someone attend Medical Sales College?

I think this school was the best option to jump into this industry. I know when entering this industry you either need to have experience in the industry, or you need to know someone within the industry. For me, I had neither. This was the best option I've made and the money was definitely worth it.

How long did you try to get into the industry before attending MSC? What was that experience like?

Less than 6 months

Please briefly explain your job interview process with your hiring company.

It was actually a very long process. Medical Sales College set me up though to succeed in the process. And I was able to talk to my teachers the whole time to get help on how to do my best in the interview. It was a 5 step process; I originally had my first interview with the rep I would be working with daily, then I had my next interview with his boss (area manager), and then the next interview was with the district manager, after that I went and had another interview (more along the lines of a ride-a-long with the rep) and then the final interview was with the VP of sales. As soon as I met with the rep I would be working with daily, I knew this company was the one I wanted to work for.
