I personally have been in your shoes - In the recession of the late 80’s, early 90’s I had just been downsized for the second time in my corporate career in the consumer goods industry, I was living on $250 a week government assistance, had taken in a lodger to help cover mortgage payments and was using public transport to go to sales rep interviews, the outlook was, to say the least, bleak. I decided that I needed to gain more stable employment in a growth industry and identified healthcare. Having spent 6 years in sales and marketing recruitment I put all my training and advice about informational interviewing in to practice. However I was quickly told by everyone I spoke to that to break in to the medical industries in the early 90’s you needed a solid track record, science qualifications and a degree. I was the complete opposite with ten different employers on my resume, had left school at 18 under the threat of expulsion and my science teachers had labeled me as an idiot with an E grade average…………….
Three and a half years later I was leaving an already successful medical device sales position to join, as employee number 29, a rapidly growing UK biotech firm as National Sales Manager, I hired a non-scientific sales team, launched the company’s first commercial product in the world and two years later was involved in the Canadian launch as part of an international corporation with a market value of several hundred million dollars and almost 1,000 employees worldwide.
Eventually the company sold off its commercial success’ for $100 million, returned to its R&D roots and closed its North American offices, but as a result of these experiences I decided to dedicate the rest of my professional life to helping others realize their own career goals.
