Why Do You Want To Change Careers To Pharmaceutical Sales?

⟩ Why do you want to change careers to pharmaceutical sales?

I have a lot to offer a pharmaceutical company. Not only am I a clinician with sales experience but a clinician with sales experience that is well established in this medical community with a large network to draw from and who is largely familiar with the landscape of healthcare in this market. I also really enjoy detailing pharmaceuticals to physicians and peers.
