If you are a sales professional or want to become one, or if you are looking for a new sales job, you will face one of the toughest interview processes of any job seeker.
Recently, I ran a poll to see what you think about whether or not companies should have the right to run credit checks on candidates before they’re hired for career opportunities in pharmaceutical sales, pathology revenue, clinical diagnostics revenue, biotechnology sales, pharma device sales, hospital equipment sales, surgical supplies sales, imaging revenue, laboratory sales, or pharmaceutical revenue. Here’s the results:
49% - Totally not
40% - Only if there’s a wonderful reason
11% - Sure, why not?
My personal opinion…companies should only check credit scores on those candidates who will receive a company credit card, or some other similar financial responsibility. I see that a slim majority of you don’t agree with me, but it’s not unreasonable for a healthcare sales company to wanna give financial access to these people with proven reliability.
