Medical Device Sales Job Search

You all call and ask, “I am finding a few jobs out there, and even getting to the final interview, only to find out I did not get the job; WHAT’S GOING ON?”.  

Then of course I have to say, “funny, we have a few jobs, send several qualified people that almost always make it to the final interview and lately they often don’t get the job, in fact very few outside candidates get the job lately!”.   Now we both know this is not funny, for candidate and recruiter alike, so what is going on?  Well I will tell you what is going on and I have seen it going on for some time now….time to spill the secret and share with you 5 reasons why: (more…)

At RecruitBUZZ we usually have between 25 to 40 medical sales jobs at a given time.  If we don’t have a job that fits your needs (at the time of your call),  we direct you to our Career Resource Blog and we use our off-hours to find resources for you as Job Seekers to help you conduct your own Job Search.  Well, we received a call on Friday that our favorite FREE MEDICAL SALES JOB BOARD (MedRepCareers.com) has added some additional resources that really should be your first, if not almost your only, place to go find a Medical Sales Job or Clinical Nurse Support Job and top marketing and management jobs across the USA!

Why we like the board for Job Seekers:

It is a nice Gorilla Job Search Arsenal to register and add MedRepCareers.com to your overall Job Search Strategy. 

At this point I have written several articles within the Gorilla Job Search Series.  Many of you have asked me to tie them together in one article boiling it all down to one solid overall aggressive, multi-strategy approach to finding a Medical Sales or Sales or Marketing Management Job.  Please stay tuned for the next article addressing this need.  by Linda Hertz, please e-mail me with your suggestions for new articles at linda@recruitbuzz.com with BLOG ARTICLE SUGGESTION in the SUBJECT area.

Lost your Job? How to blast your medical sales Resume to hundreds NOW!

Tuesday, January 27th, 2009

Medical Sales Resumes to Medical Sales RecruitersOK, you lost your job and you need to immediately get your resume to anyone and everyone quickly, especially in this market!  Well this is the BIG BAZOOKA of Gorilla Tactics….we have a vehicle for you where you can blast your resume in one pull of the trigger! We usually don’t endorse any one particular product, but we like this one enough to sponsor them on our website.  You don’t want to read the rest? This will shoot to medical device and pharmaceutical medical recruiters across the USA:

Many of you probably have not heard about this service, but it is ideal for people who have lost their job and want maximum exposure to their resume.  Medical Device Resume Blaster and the companion piece for those of you who have a pharmaceutical background, Pharma Resume Blaster: THEY ARE ONE SERVICE for both.

What is this?  This is really one compay and both packages are really the same thing, for marketing purposes they differentiate their adds to appeal to one or the other market sector; Medical Device or Pharmaceutical Sales.  If this program appeals to you, only buy One Package, not both…again, all resumes go to one source: all medical and pharmaceutical sales recruiters who are registered, and a ton of us are registered.  Why?  Because we get the resume’s free (and us recruiters LOVE free) and resume’s literally “blast” into our e-mail box every day AND we know that IF we like what we see, we better respond fast because we are competing against other recruiters for your resume…YOU!

Hold on there, sounds too good to be true?  Well, there is a small cost involved, but I am about to share with you some key points to consider BEFORE you purchase anything and if you decide Resume Blaster is right for you; then I will share with you the least expensive way to use this service!

Key Points

  1. If you have lost your job, this is the BEST way to get maximum exposure to your resume immediately to medical sales recruiters, combined with maximizing the use of FREE Job Boards and building and accessing your Career Network
  2. I suggest making your resume “key word” search friendly BEFORE you blast out your resume, why? As mentioned in number 6 below; recruiters will put your resume in their data bases and you want them to find your resume for the next job opportunity they have!  Need to know more on how to craft your medical sales resume with “key words” that will pop your resume to the top in our databases? You can find my article on this subject here.
  3. Certainly you can use Resume Blaster if you are currently employed, they are diligent in making sure ONLY RECRUITERS receive the resumes, BUT there are no guarantees.  So if you fall into this bucket you decide what is best for your own situation and understand you have no control over who and what recruiters get your resume. 
  4. I highly suggest you set up a Yahoo FREE E-Mail Account  (again, I love FREE stuff) or similar service.  Having a permanent e-mail that is designated for your job hunt will keep your Resume Blaster service separate from your every day e-mails; you may continue to get e-mails from recruiters….even perhaps a year or two after your hunt is finished.  This is a good thing, YOU NEVER KNOW when you may need a job in the future!
  5. This is also a great service if you have a decent resume; no multiple job hopping every year or two, a 4 year degree, some solid sales experience (preferrably in the medical, pharmaceutical industry or strong “business to business” sales) and your resume is reasonably well written.  Remember, sending out an ugly toad to 1200 princesses does not increase your chance of getting a kiss! 
  6. What package to buy?  I suggest only buying the $49.99 ONE SHOT BLAST, that’s it!  Repeating the blast or paying for a priority blast is a WASTE of money.  Why? Because all of us top recruiters put your resume in our databases and we don’t lose you (unless you are a Toad of course!).  NO need to send it again over and over; if you aren’t getting called by any of the over 1,200 recruiters that recieved your blast, than you may just have too many warts on that resume for this to work for you!  So you decide if this is a fit for you and if it is, well go ahead and Email your resume to over 1200 MEDICAL Recruiters here

If you like to order from a picture go ahead, remember Med Device Blaster and Pharma Blaster are ONE COMPANY and ordering from here gets you to both places:

 
We understand the unemployment numbers have jumped and they continue to do so every week, even in our usually “safe” industry.  I am a strong advocate of using multiple Job Search Strategies and approaches to finding a job in a tough marketplace.  The Resume Blaster approach is just one more arsenal to include in your Extreme Job Search Tactics.    So blast away! By Linda Hertz
