Overview of Medical Device Sales Jobs
The difference in general medical sales jobs and medical device sales jobs is the level of complexity of the medical device or medical product. Most medical device sales positions involve detailing a medical device or medical product during a patient’s medical or surgical procedure often in an operating room or hospital environment. Medical device sales jobs often involve calling on surgeons, specialists or executive level clients. These positions require a high level of expertise in a given area and a proven sales track record. In contrast, a general sales position in medical sales selling medical products would most likely call on hospitals, alternate care facilities or general practitioners. The products sold in a medical sales position are often a little less complicated. Starting your medical sales career selling medical products may feel less glamorous, however it will help you establish your sales track record and your ability to sell to physicians and healthcare providers. Medical device companies seek to hire successful sales representatives with proven sales numbers and strong connections to the healthcare industry.
