Just saw that Stryker opened a role that I'm interested in applying to but weirdly the website isn't letting me create an account to be able to put in an application. I messaged some recruiters and sales reps but no reply. Anyone have any advice or any direct connections?

I had the most pleasant conversation with a hiring manager this week. He called me to let me know I did not get the job. What, that actually happens! I couldn't believe it! He said it was down to myself and another candidate. The other candidate just had more years of experience with president's club wins behind them and that was the only reason they chose them over me. He complemented me on my interview and said I blew it out of the park. We are staying in touch because they are growing territories (it is a start-up) and he wants to keep me in mind when other positions become available. Remember to always keep following up with your contacts! This conversation was a reminder that there are actual "humans" in the world who will treat you with the respect you deserve. Especially, when you treat them the same way.

Are there any EYS templates for a sales framework?

Please provide constructive feedback on my strengths and weaknesses intended for my upcoming interview. Strengths: 1. Strong Negotiator: As a strong negotiator, I excel at handling objections and presenting value-driven solutions, which has consistently helped me close high-value deals in my previous roles. In medical sales, this skill allows me to engage healthcare providers effectively, emphasize benefits like improved patient outcomes and cost efficiency, and build their confidence in adopting new treatments. 2.Relationship Builder: My strength as a relationship builder has been key to fostering long-term partnerships and trust with clients. In medical sales, being able to develop rapport with healthcare professionals is critical in understanding their needs and aligning solutions with their practice. I believe that nurturing these connections leads to higher product adoption and sustained success over time. Weakness: 1. Limited medical knowledge: I’ll be honest- Coming from a sales background, I haven’t had clinical experience or exposure to medical terminology, after all sales is sales, I’ve been dedicating time to reading books, studying medical sales articles, and learning industry-specific terminology. My sister, a successful medical sales representative, has also been an invaluable mentor, helping me deepen my understanding. My commitment to continuous learning and curiosity ensures I’m building the expertise needed to excel, and I’m confident my proactive approach and strong sales skills will enable me to succeed in the medical sales field. 2.Delegation: In my previous role, I initially took on too many responsibilities to ensure high service quality, which led to client delays and personal burnout. Recognizing the need for change, I focused on improving delegation by assigning tasks like lead generation and prospecting to team members based on their strengths. This approach accelerated service delivery, enhanced the client experience, and boosted team collaboration and efficiency.
