Doctor Doctor!
Well folks, it’s a Bank Holiday weekend and just the right time for a ‘Doctor Doctor’ joke -
Patient - ‘Doctor Doctor, I feel like a pair of curtains’
Doctor - ‘Well, well, just sit there and pull yourself together’
Enjoy the Bank Holiday weekend folks and talk again next week.

Other people's opinions
Other people’s opinions can be dangerous - always check it out before making a decision based on them.
We have had 2 recent episodes where our job seekers had been told by other people negative things about the Company they were applying to for a job and nearly pulled out as a result.
This is where word of mouth can be dangerous.
Check out the facts yourself first before making such a critical decision regarding your career and life balance.
Both cases were unfounded and it transpired that these were ex Medical Sales Reps who had left both Companies on a bad note and were both spreading negative feedback about these Companies down the Medical Sales Grapevine.
If you are a job seeker, you need to be very thorough in your methods and your research.
It is okay to hear negative things about the Company you are considering, but check it out - try to get a balanced non biaised opinion.
We are very thorough as Recruitment Consultants within the Medical Industry and will know whether rumours or word of mouth is true or not as we know our Client Companies very well and can therefore advise.
However, it is still imperative you seek out both sides of story and DO NOT let one person’s opinion dictate your career path.

Stop and Take Note!
Be Prepared! The single most fatal error when going to an interview is lack of preparation.
When attending an interview you must always prepare for all eventualities. For example, if you are a Medical Sales Rep and going for a Medical Sales job interview and you are required to do a presentation, then please cover all options!
- Do the presentation early, have it perfect so you have at least 4/5 days to practice delivering it, and practice the timing - 10 minutes with 5 minutes for questions
- Handouts - bring a minimum of 3 handouts of the presentation. Your interviewers may not want a copy, but it is best you have it to hand for their future reference
- Have it saved and ready to go on your laptop!
- Save it to a memory stick and bring the memory stick with you! They may wish to view it on their own facilities.
Do not get caught out without duplicates of your work, the last thing you need is an IT error just as you are about to go “on stage” and you have no back up. It is unprofessional and shows a lack of preparation on your part.
Remember that doing a presentation in an interview informs your interviewer of your speaking, selling and presenting skills for their company and their products.
Imagine they are your clients and they have allocated you 15 minutes of their time to hear you speak about the products you are selling. Your own laptop crashes before you even open the presentation and you haven’t got it backed up on a memory stick?
Always be prepared!

Be the Best
When reviewing or re-doing your CV, stop and rethink it. You need to think of your CV as your representative on first look! Put your best foot forward with your CV.
- Do not tweek your CV to the job, rather include the relevant details in each position you have held and that should speak for itself.
- Pur your jobs in chronological order and not in terms of relevancy to the job you are applying for. i.e. in date order not your Nursing jobs first then your Medical Sales jobs.
It is easier to read a CV when put in chronological order. If your CV has all the relevant duties worked per job, then it will speak for itself and your best foot will be put forward to potential employers.
So rethink when revising your CV - simply make sure all the details are up to date and it will speak for itself!

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!
