Can you break into Medical Device Sales without a background in sales?
In this episode, Vidhi Patel shares the exact roadmap she used to transition from a Biology major and Clinical Researcher to an On-Site Specialist at Stryker, and finally landing her dream role in Breast & Skeletal Health Sales at Hologic.
If you’ve been told you "don't have enough experience" or you’ve been stuck in a clinical role wanting to pivot to the business side, this interview is for you. Vidhi and I break down the tactical tools—from 30-60-90 Day Plans to the "About Me" PDF—that make a candidate undeniable to hiring managers.
In this video, you will learn:
- Why the "On-Site Specialist" role is the best backdoor into sales.
- How to use LinkedIn to get noticed by top-tier recruiters.
- The secret to the "About Me" page that builds instant rapport with surgeons.
- Why you should let your company pay for your MBA (and why you don't need it to get hired).
- How to handle the grueling Stryker/Hologic interview process and the Gallup test.
