Details Details Details
Whether you are applying for a Medical Sales job, a Nursing Job or a job in the Medical Device industry, your CV says everything about you from first glance. Whether you get that second glance depends on the contents of your CV. It’s all in the details you have provided.
Where as once upon a time, your title in the medical company you worked for and the dates you worked there were all self explanatory, these days a little more fine tuning is required in the details of your CV.
For example, if you are a Nurse, it is no longer acceptable to simply give the name of the hospitals you have worked in and your title of “Staff Nurse” and hope for the best. You need those extra details of not just the hospital, but the type of ward, the specific duties you carried out on a daily basis. Whether you are Orthopaedics or Cosmetics… it is all in the details.
Similarly, if you are working in the Kitting Department of a Medical Device company, you cannot just assume that your next potential employer will automatically know what your current job entails:
- Do you deal with QA? How so?
- Do you have regular contact with R&D? In what capacity?
- Do you have detailed involvement with Product Development? Explain the details.
- Have you named or detailed the specific projects you have worked on?
It is a very difficult mission, and although a bit daunting it will be worth it in the end. It is those extra details in this day and age that could get you that second glance.. possibly the job!

Medical Sales booming!
Medical Sales is still booming even in this current economic climate.
There is a noticeable decline in the Pharmaceutical Sales sector as evident in all the recent redundancies and contract positions not being renewed.
However, the Medical Sales, Medical Products, Medical Equipment and Medical Device Sales are all faring well.
We have a number of Medical Sales jobs currently generally looking for experienced Medical Sales reps, but not Pharmaceutical Sales or GP Reps.

From ATM to AMT (Advanced Manufacturing Technology)
Banking on it, the banking industry in Ireland today is suffering with almost 800 jobs are going in Bank of Scotland, Ireland/ Hallifax. Today people are looking elsewhere for employment prospects that offer security and good salaries.
Currently those conditions only appear to exist in either the public sector at senior clerical officer grades or within certain growth sectors in the Irish economy such as Medical Device Manufacturing or within Medical Sales. Both of these sectors are exhibiting phenomenal growth despite the current down turn.
Positions such as those for Medical Technical Sales rep, Chief Science Officer, or Senior Injection Moulding Engineer are on offer from a variety of major employers such as Vistakon, Mergon, KCI, Medtronic or HSL. All these positions offer considerable career prospects and attractive salaries that still hark back to the good old days of the early naughties.

Are you what they want?
Less haste-more speed as the saying goes. I recently received over a dozen CV’s from candidates applying for jobs that they were quiet obviously not qualified to do, both in terms of experience and qualifications. After the tenth CV I became slightly paranoid and read my job descriptions again and realised they were correct and more than that were very specific in what I required from applicants.
For example, I was in one instance looking for a Degree Qualified Production Manager or Manufacturing Engineer with experience of Injection Moulded Medical Devices. What I received was a Production Manager with none of the other attributes, no degree, no medical device experience and no moulding experience?
Obviously the candidate was not suitable and was informed of this fact. That didnt help me as both his and my time was wasted.
This made me realise that the candidates were not or could not have been reading the job specification properly or fully before application or they would have realised this and not wasted their time.
Granted these are difficult times and people are frantically trying to find new jobs because of urgent financial commitments and they are in difficult situations, However that also means their time is even more valuable and probably better spent researching where suitable jobs are or by presenting their skills correctly and sending their CV’s to employers or Agencies that have positions that match their skills and experience
Consider this; if a candidate replies to a live requirement immediately that they are suitable for, if they are the first applicant they stand psychologically 1st in line for the job with the employer as that employer may require that person immediately and lean strongly towards the first suitably qualified candidate.
At the very least a requirement may be closing out and the applicant may have missed out on a closing application date whilst wasting time applying to an unsuitable post.
Applying to a requirement you dont suit means you are looking in the wrong direction at the wrong time and you may miss out to someone else who has taken their time selecting a suitable job and as a result won out ahead of you simply because they took the time to read the Job specification.

The shape of things to come for 2010 may be higher unemployment and lower economic activity for some sectors of the economy. But as far as medical and science sectors are concerned, we are still seeing considerable opportunities for growth; in particular the medical devices manufacturing sector which has recently seen major investment in R&D with such diverse companies as Teleflex, Baxter Healthcare, KCI Medical and Merit Medical.
All have seen further expansion this year and have increased growth in the development of their production and manufacturing facilities and directed extensive FDI (Foreign Direct Investment) in new product developments which will see Ireland placed at the fore front of global Medical Device R&D.
So what opportunities do exist for those looking to retrain or re-skill? Considerable and varied opportunities exist for those with Research and Product Development, Regulatory, Quality, Technical and supporting skills in Sales and customer support-particularly those candidates with European and Asian language skills.
Jackie Brown is keen to talk with those seeking career moves or those with existing medical device manufacturing industry experience as we move into another year of anticpated high growth in recruitment within the medical and life science industries.
In the mean time, to all those looking for a career move or seeking new opportunities we wish you a Happy and prosperous New Year in 2010.
