If you are a sales professional or want to become one, or if you are looking for a new sales job, you will face one of the toughest interview processes of any job seeker.
Did you ever wish you had the “inside track” at your clinical sales job interview? Or that you knew exactly how to explain that slightly difficult/embarrassing/sensitive situation in your job history? Or even the very best way to explain who you’re and what you do in a compelling, “hire me” kind of way? Maybe you’re getting interviews, but you know that something’s not going quite right because you’re not getting called back for the second one.
What’s your solution?
Hire an interview coach.
Interview coaching is an unexpected alternative for many health care sales candidates. There are so many articles you can discover online about career opportunity interview preparation (including all the pharmaceutical sales position tips on this blog) that it can seem just as easy (and cheaper) to just do it yourself.
But, an interview coach can take you beyond what you can accomplish yourself—providing an expert, unbiased insight addressing your individual situation, examining your position history and personality to help you devise the best way to career opportunity yourself in the interview, and even role-playing interview questions with you. It’s important that you get one who knows your field and that you’re comfortable working with….but once you do, you’re set. It is an investment, but it’s one that will pay off as soon as you land the career opportunity you’ve been chasing.
Maybe you’re not having too many problems but you realize you could be just a little bit better. It’s gaining that extra edge that turns a competitor into a champion. Pro athletes know that—that’s why they hire coaches, too.
Interview coaching can help you with confidence and presence, communication skills, your wording and emphasis in your answers to typical job interview queries. You’ll learn to customize your answers to fit your individual situation and stand out from the “standard” answers everyone else gives. Coaching can also help you master the all-important closing (asking for the career opportunity) at the end of the interview.
Don’t spin your wheels trying to handle this difficult job market on your own. Get smart, and get a coach who can help you get on the road to success!

I’m not saying you’ve to hire me, but you can get more ideas on what an interview coach can help you with. I’ve helped many candidates land great career opportunities faster than they could have imagined with just a little career coaching help, and I really believe it’s a great solution for every candidate. Best of luck.
