Cook GI and Endoscopy

Guest
Have an upcoming interview. I'm assuming that this division is similar to the others I've read about on this forum...base around $60 with maybe a 5k bonus potential? Is that bonus broken up quarterly or do you just get it at the end of the year? Does GI and Endoscopy carry a pager?

I want to get into device and out of pharma. I make about 65k in pharma. Do bigger device companies hire reps from Cook that do well? Any thoughts? Thanks.
 






Does anyone know about the open position in the Coluimbus, OH area? I saw an ad in the newspaper last week for a GI position so I sent an e-mail requesting a return receipt but never got one. I have been trying to track down the manager for this position. Any help would be appreciated!!!

What is a normal sale, what is a large sale, what is a small sale? How does this compare to BSC, ConMed, etc.

Normal territory sells between $2 and $3 million per year, at least in D&I, the largest division of Cook. BSC, Medtronic, Cordis are the "big boys" where you can make more bonus but Cook has a lot less pressure, free company car, etc.
 










I'm in the final stages of the interview process, meeting with the national manager shortly. any thoughts as how i should prepare

NSM interview should just be a rubber stamp. Treat it like any other interveiw but be realistic in your pay expectations, ie, don't ask. Great products, most of the managers are fine, lifestyle is fine, but you are basically working on salary. National trip is now every other year or even every three years, next one is, hold on, in Tennesee. Gone are the trips to luxurious beach resorts in Mexico.
 


I have an interview for the endoscopy sales and was wondering i don't have device sales but have 3.5 yrs B2B and 2yrs light pharma. how much of a disadvantage is this going into the interviews

Rob wants to see that you are confident, smart and eager in the interview. Focus on your strenghts and what you can bring to the company. Be prepared to answer questions that he has...i.e if you don't have a med or pharma background. Good luck!

If you already have an interview, then you must of pleased HR. After that, it's up to the Regional Manager and what we wants out of reps in his territory.
