Hiring Prostate Sales Force?

I heard that they are going to be hiring a sales force to launch their prostate cancer test beginning of next year. Anyone currently or previously working there? Is it a good sales culture???

 

I was contacted today via e-mail from a recruiter re: Genomic Health looking for a "Prostate Sales force" Does anyone know any details about this?

 

C'mon Genomic Health people, what's up with this new division?

 

RUL base ?

 

110k with large territory and no real chance of success. Same product was tried with another company (Aureon) and they went out of business because no one really used the test.

 

Thank-you, I found that out as well. Maybe one clinical paper. From what I hear, they're setting them selves up for failure.

 

Organizations are telling men to quit getting screened for prostate cancer. So it doenst take einstein to realize this is gonna fail.

 

How do you know when you have no idea of what you are talking about? Seriously. How? This has nothing to do with screening.

 

Well its the end of 2014, two validation studies and decision impact study and health economics study. Also several thousand urologists ordering many thousands of tests. What a failure! <---sarcasm in case you are a complete idiot

 

Prolaris by Myriad has more efficacy.

 

Efficacy in relation to an assay?

Asinine.

 

Dude, why are you even bothering to respond to these idiotic commentsl? We're way too busy for this. Let the drug reps go back and forth with this stuff. We're out to move tens of thousands of assays so get after it or get canned!

 

Haha yea more like ten or twenty

 

What is the word here? Seems to be a lot of pressure on the salesforce with physicians not really buying into the data. Anyone have some insight?

 

Tons of pressure! We can't even give this test away for free.

 

This is a good test. MD's are willing to use. Lots of pressure on sales side, but fun to sell.

 

Ok, problem with the prostate franchise is the beach dyed blond haired leader - "A"$$hole, "A"rrogant, and "U"nethical. Senior leaders need to watch his MO

 

How many more people is GHI going to promote from the prostate division who lack the ethics gene?

 

Put some lipstick on this pig and get it sold. I'm sure the reorg is going to improve sales.....

 

Is that LOSER Michael Hicks still there?
