User Ratings and Reviews
4 Stars Good Bool
This book is worth it for anyone wanting to learn about Pharmaceutical Sales. It covers EVERYTHING you need to know about this career. It was recommended to me by a sales rep for a major pharmaceutical company. The book is great from beginning to end. It’s also very easy to understand and offers great tips. The only thing I didn’t like were the sample resumes and cover letters. Nevertheless, it was still a good buy.
5 Stars Excellent primer
This book is a fantastic primer for “how-to-get-a-job” in pharmaceutical sales. It is a quick read, but the information is complete and if you actually follow-through with all of the tactics that the author suggests, you have a good chance of at least getting one interview. After that it will be up to you to sell yourself and demonstrate that you actually know what you’re talking about. But again, if you do what the author advises you to do, you should be able to get the business.
5 Stars So far, so good!
Great reference. Thorough, succinct, nice extras in the back, lots of legwork already done for you!

Insider’s Guide to the World of Pharmaceutical Sales, Eighth Edition
This book had every bit of information that I needed to get interviews, how to perform on interviews and what to bring with me. I used it to get a different type of sales position but I went to each interview well equipped and was able to score so many job offers that in the end, I got to pick and choose! There are key factors in here that will truly win you the next interview or the job offer. I am so thankful for this book!
