Having a Successful Medical Sales Job Interview

If you’re hoping to secure a position as a medical sales rep or start a career in medical sales marketing or pharmaceutical sales, you’d better make sure you’re extremely well prepared for your interview.

If you want to be successful in your medical sales job interview take some time and consider what questions you may be asked during your interview.

Interview questions tend to fall into one of three categories; they are either hypothetical (How would you handle this difficult situation..?), evidence-based (Give an example of when you have exhibited the following skills) or practical (Are you willing to relocate ?).

We’ve put together a list of some of the most common pharmaceutical and medical sales and marketing job interview questions to get you started:

Tell me what you know about our company? Still a classic interview question, and an opportunity for you to impress your interviewers with your foresight and research skills. Always try to learn a bit about the company that you’re applying to prior to your interview.

What are your strengths / weaknesses? Specifically, what are your personal strengths that not only make you a good medical salesperson, but also make you right for the company? Weaknesses offer you an opportunity to show a little humility - if you are aware of your flaws; you know the areas you need to work on to become an even better employee.

Have you done anything in order to prepare for your role as a medical sales rep? This can be your chance to talk about any books, publications, online resources or even articles you may have read, plus any medical or pharmaceutical sales job courses you may have taken . A commitment to learning more about your job always impresses any interviewers or potential employers.
