CV Preparation

nullWhen you have finished writing your CV, here are more tips for you to catch the eye of the prospective employer:
1. Check and double check the grammar and spellings.
2. Ask other people to proofread it.
3. Put a cover letter in the envelope as the first sheet that will be read. For a particular program, you can send it along with the other application materials. What’s important is that the cover letter can catch the reader’s attention.

One day before the interview, discuss with the intern/tech/nurse/resident the area of expertise where you are interested. This will give you more leverage during your interview.

Medical Sales Job

nullIf you are struggling to get employed in a medical sales job, you may be doing something wrong in your application. Beware of these two mistakes that job hunters do:

1. Don’t just send out the usual version of your curriculum vitae (CV) to job openings in the internet and expect success. You will be able to gain more success if you carefully edit your CV to tailor-fit to the job that you are applying for. Especially in the medical sales industry, precision and correct information are the key factors in selecting your application.
2. Do not ever lie or exaggerate in your application. The medical sales industry is known for running background checks in looking for candidates.
