Are you thinking you might be interested in pursuing a career in selling drugs? No, not the illegal kind, silly. Im talking about the LEGAL stuff, a real job: selling pharmaceuticals. The pharmaceutical business is a fun, although demanding, job. It is also an extremely competitive career path (for those who love competition).
I am sure that you have read online or heard from a relative about how someone who is six degrees separated from you started their career and has made a fortune in this industry. I hear about it all the time. Stories like that are rampant in this business and at your parents dinner table. All you hear is BLAH, BLAH, BLAH about a distant cousin is now making great money in the pharmaceutical industry.
Unfortunately some people who think they might be interested find it nearly impossible to learn about the business. They dont know exactly how to find out what a pharmaceutical sales rep does all day. They dont know where to look for more information, they dont know how to look for such a job, and they dont have any connections in the industry to help them out. One of the reasons why many recent college graduates are faced with a situation like this is because academia has not taught you anything about job searches.
The problem with college education is that they teach you absolutely nothing about the real world. A professor spoon feeds college students with theories and formulas that someone developed 150 years ago that are used in the classroom and left in the classroom. Yet, the basics like interviewing, networking, accepting the right job, understanding a 401 (K), or a health benefits package no one have even dared to talk about. What the college/university setting has neglected in teaching you, I have made up for it in this pharmaceutical career e-book. So lets go to school!
I write this e-book for the newly minted recent college graduates like you who want to break into the pharmaceutical industry. I am eager to share with you:
What to expect
What to do
What not to do
Where to look
on your pursuit towards landing a job in this industry. Dont worry; I will make it fun! If you want to take your first step towards a career in the pharmaceutical industry:
