Crush Your Medical Sales Interview with Confidence!
As Bob Marley said…
“Don’t worry about a thing. Every little thing is going to be alright.”
Easier said than done, right? Especially when you’re sitting in front of a hiring manager, trying to prove you belong in Medical Sales.
A chiropractor I coached was feeling the pressure. He knew he was smart, driven, and great with patients—but could he sell?
Here’s how he nailed his virtual interview ⤵
🔲 Set the Stage for Success
Checked his background & lighting.
Found a quiet space with strong Wi-Fi.
Tested his equipment 15 minutes before go-time.
🔲 Diagnosed & Prepared Like a Sales Pro
Assessed his strengths & weaknesses.
Balanced his healthcare knowledge with a business acumen.
Used motivational phrases to shift into a confident, winning state.
🔲 Dressed for the Role He Wanted
Wore a suit and tie.
His outfit fueled his confidence.
Pro Tip: It’s about how you feel on the inside.
🔲 Monitored & Adjusted His Performance
Got a full night’s sleep to stay sharp.
Practiced answering “WHY” Questions.
Stayed present: focused on listening & responding.
🔲 Trained for the Big Moment
Mastered “Tell me about yourself.”
Researched the company, product, and competition.
Connected with 3 sales reps to understand the role better.
🔲 Built Trust with Storytelling
Asked smart, insightful questions.
Used stories to connect and be memorable.
Smiled, held eye contact, and made the interviewer feel engaged.
Here’s the Reality ⤵
Hiring managers know chiropractors are smart and hardworking. What they don’t know is whether you can make the transition to sales.
The interview is your moment to PROVE IT.
