To all candidates trying to break into medical device sales, here are 3 things you should be doing on LinkedIn right now as a candidate to standout. ⬇️


1️⃣ Optimize your profile like a sales pitch
Your headline, summary, and experience should clearly show:
• Why sales
• Why med device
• How your background translates
If your profile is vague, you’re invisible.

2️⃣ Be visible — not passive
Comment thoughtfully on posts from med reps, managers, and companies you’re targeting.
Visibility builds familiarity.
Familiarity builds conversations.
Conversations lead to opportunities.

3️⃣ Build relationships before you apply
Connect with people in the role. Ask smart questions. Learn the space.
Most hires happen because someone already knows who you are.

Breaking into med device isn’t about luck.
It’s about strategy, consistency, and showing up where hiring managers already are. These tips should help you with more activity on LinkedIn everyday as you’re pursuing the industry. 

Hope this helps all candidates that are looking to break into med sales right now.

I’ve gotten a lot of messages and emails this week from candidates asking “how do I get lucky and break into med device sales?” 

It’s not about luck, it’s all about STRATEGY. 👀

Too many candidates treat this space like a numbers game: ⬇️
• Apply everywhere
• Send generic messages
• Hope something sticks

That’s not the best strategy to have for this. 

The candidates who actually break in have a game-plan: ⬇️

→ They know which companies fit their background
→ They understand the sales model and product
→ They tailor their story to the role
→ They prepare for interviews like it’s a final round every time 💯

Medical device sales is competitive for a reason. Companies aren’t just hiring reps — they’re investing 6 figures in someone to own a territory and represent their brand.

If you’re serious about breaking in, you can’t wing it. You have to Get intentional. Get prepared. Get strategic. 

Because The right plan changes everything.

Hope this helps all candidates that are looking to break into med sales right now. 

PS - if you’re a candidate and you’re trying to pivot into med sales and you need a deep dive 1 on 1 session or our affordable resources to help with your resume, LinkedIn outreach and med device interview prep, please message me 🤝🏽

I got some messages and emails Friday from candidates asking “What should I be doing on the weekend to help me break into med device sales?” 🤔

If I were a candidate right now pursuing the med device sales industry, here’s what I’d be doing on the weekend to stay ready ⬇️

Remember you don’t have to spend all day online. It might look like this⬇️

• Researching a few companies you’re genuinely interested in 
• Tightening up your resume, LinkedIn profile, brag book and 30-60-90 plan 
• Practicing how you tell your story and why this industry makes sense for you
• Reaching out to a couple of people on LinkedIn with thoughtful, genuine messages
• Practice some situational interview answers along with your CLOSE 

These small, intentional actions add up over time and Theyll build your confidence. They reduce interview stress. They separate prepared candidates from hopeful ones.

By the way You don’t have to do this all weekend, just take an hour on Saturday or Sunday (or both) and it will become your routine until you break into the industry. 

Use the weekend to reset, refocus, and set yourself up for a strong week ahead. 👊🏽

Hope this helps all candidates that are looking to break into med sales right now. 

PS - if you’re a candidate and you’re trying to pivot into med sales and you need a deep dive 1 on 1 session or our affordable resources to help with your resume, LinkedIn outreach and med device interview prep, please message me 🤝🏽

Keep up the great work 🙋🏽‍♂️🗣️🫵🏽👌🏽🏀

Wins a national championship and then Makes a joke about what it taught him about B2B sales 😂

It’s Very Very easy to root for this guy. 

Also Fernando, IF for some reason you decide the NFL isn’t for you I can submit your resume for our med device sale openings in Indy. These companies love former college athletes 🤷🏽‍♂️

Congrats to Indiana on winning the national championship! 🫡🏈🏆👏🏽

#CollegeFootball #IU #Linkedin #MedicalDeviceSales #CorporateBuckets

Student-Athlete @ Indiana University, Bloomington | HAAS School of Business Graduate

Monday night, my teammates and I had the honor of raising the National Championship trophy and bringing a CFB title back to Bloomington, Indiana, for the first time in history. With the guidance of our coaches and the unwavering support of Hoosier Nation, our band of brothers made the unbelievable believable.

Here’s what winning a National Championship taught me about B2B sales 🏆  (kidding…kinda)

1. Believe in yourself: Four years ago, I was a two-star recruit playing high school football 30 minutes from Hard Rock Stadium with a dream of playing at the highest level. Two days ago, I became a National Champion in that same stadium, surrounded by the family who never stopped believing in me.

2. Take the risk: When it’s 4th and 5 at the 12-yard line, go for it. 

3. Remember who got you there: Thank you to my teammates, coaches, support staff, professors, and everyone behind the scenes who helped make this happen.
