Question 26 of 35

At Stryker, many of our sales relationships are with large hospital organizations. In previous roles, how have you made connections with the right people in large hospital organizations?

"My work over the last six years in pharmaceuticals has included prospecting new hospitals and clinics in a very large territory and getting in front of the right people has always been the name of the game to lead to success. Department administrators and department chiefs are who I focus my time and efforts on. I start with a phone call to set up a 30-minute date and time that is convenient for them to talk about our products. I'm very thorough in requesting email addresses so I can send them materials to read ahead of our meeting. From my understanding, this role at Stryker will have contact with the surgical theater staff and administrators of some of the largest hospitals in the territory and I look forward to providing top-notch service and sales results in the years to come here."
