Black Sales Professionals Land Huge Career Opportunities in Pharmaceutical Sales with Pfizer!

Black Sales Professionals Land Huge Career Opportunities in Pharmaceutical Sales with Pfizer!

The pharmaceutical-sales field, which is often called "recession-proof," is popular because it offers excellent salary potential, great benefits, flexibility, opportunity for growth, and frequently, the use of a company car. An aging population of baby boomers, the shift away from clinical treatment of illnesses in hospitals, and the fact that people seek a good quality of life as life expectancies continue to increase are among the factors spurring the growth of the pharmaceutical sector.

"The pharmaceutical industry is among the largest, most stable, and fastest growing businesses in the entire world," writes Anne Clayton in her book, Insight into a Career in Pharmaceutical Sales. The industry has grown 300 percent in the last decade, according to the Hay Group, a global organizational and human-resources consulting firm.

The job is also seen as somewhat prestigious. "A pharmaceutical sales representative sells a technologically advanced product to highly intelligent physicians in a very professional environment," writes pharmaceutical sales recruiter Pat Riley, summing up the field's appeal. Riley is author of several e-books on how to break into pharmaceutical sales.



Thanks to a partnership being spearheaded by Pharmaceutical leader Pfizer and HBCU CONNECT, the largest social network for HBCU students and graduates, African American professionals can get their resume in front of a Pharmaceutical sales recruiter in one step.

All candidates need to do is submit their resume and contact information on a simple form hosted on HBCUConnect.com, and their resume will be shared with a Pfizer diversity recruiter anxious to recruit African American talent.

The advantage of submitting a resume through HBCUConnect.com is that representatives from Pfizer will be able to identify diverse candidates and make sure that they are given consideration for the many sales opportunities the company has to offer in an expeditious manner.

Typical Sales positions may include:
  • Territory Managers (Internal Medicine/entry level)
  • Profeessional Healthcare Representatives (Vaccines)
  • Spenior Healthcare Representatives (Rare Disease)
  • Oncology Account Specialists
  • District Business Managers

    Candidates interested in sales careers with Pfizer should submit their resume using the following link:

    Candidates interested in other career opportunities and networking should register as members on HBCUConnect.com as well.
