I was contracted by the hiring manager for a therapeutic specialist/key acct hybrid job via LinkedIn of all things, saying something about a recruiter having a hard time reaching me and not ever hearing back from me....???? Well, was never contacted by a recruiter about Sage or anything related to a job I applied for two Months ago.....which was a Key Acct position.
But after some back and forth, I spent over an hour on the phone with the hiring manager whom seems like a stand up guy. He send me a link to Sage benefits to look over and wanted me to dive deeper into info about the company and product and now we are meeting face to face tomorrow for a formal interview.
My guess is he got tired of Taylor’s Shenanigans and started taking recruiting for his team into his own hands. Culture of Sage looks too good to be true for Pharma nowadays. Current employees use words like “innovative” and “takes care of their people”. I asked the Manager if he felt there were resources above and beyond what a typically Pharma would provide to help customers and would a Specialist be able to work their accounts as needed to bring value to separate themselves from the typical Pharma Rep......
Drug seems legit. Have to figure out delivery method and payor issues....but this is not for the weary. This is not for typical Pharma Rep whom runs around and drops crap off, gets a signature then scrambles, doesn’t want to do lunches, doesn’t want to get up at 5am to leave to drive to a breakfast far into their territory. These territories are pretty big.
This is for someone with high clinical knowledge and excellent selling skills. Who isn’t afraid to dig deep and work hard. Who truly want to bring value to what they are doing and partner with their accounts. I have No idea on compensation or anything. If anyone has a clue let me know. Hopefully will find out more tomorrow.
