I’m a sales rep for a freight company looking to get into the pharmaceutical or medical industry. My wife is going to medical school, and it would be nice if we were both in the same industry. Any input would be much appreciated!

Hillary wants to smash these big pharmaceutical and insurance companies that are earning billions. They will most likely be worse off under Obama as well. So why are these companies contributing to their campaigns?

krisnobles asked:
I’ve been applying for pharmaceutical sales positions but I don’t have any pharmaceutical sales experience and I’m sure that it’s hindering my ability to get interviews. If I can’t get that, my second choice is Human Resources but since my undergradute degree is not in HR or Business, I ‘m having the same road block. Any suggestions?

Through research, I found that pharmaceutical companies look for experience obtained from Fortune 500 companies, but not insurance companies. Why would that be?

BeachGirl asked:
I’m getting my biology b.s. next semester, and I was thinking about becoming a pharmaceutical rep. I have experience in corporate sales, since I was involved in the airline industry, as an account representative, I enjoyed my work and managed to excel and travel to lots of places. My grades the first years of college are not something I’m proud of but I’m doing better now. How important are college grades for obtaining a job? What are the pros and cons of being a pharm. rep? thanks!

Pharmaceutical products that contain benzoyl peroxide have to disclose carcinogenic risks on package inserts, but the same rate of benzoyl peroxide in over the counter benzoyl peroxide doesn’t. Why is that?

I am currently a senior at the University of Illinois scheduled to graduate in July/August of 2007 with a degree in Kinesiology. After interning with physical therapists, chiropractors, and nurses I decided that the clinical aspect and extra years of education of healthcare may not be for me so I was considering pharmaceutical sales. I have a professor who is getting me in touch with a friend of hers so that I may be able to intern with him, but other than that, does anybody have any ideas about how I can get my foot in the door and really learn about the career to see if it is a good match for me and my future? Also, are there any tips for snagging a job in this field right out of college if it is what I choose to pursue?
