Medical device sales is a totally different world from pharmaceutical sales, but saying you can’t transition to it from the latter is shortsighted. NuVasive Director Andre Dubose proves this with his personal example of how someone from pharmaceutical sales can successfully transition to medical device sales by leveraging the right intangibles. All it takes is the right mindset, the right relationships and a willingness to undergo diverse experiences to expand your skillset. In this first of a two-part interview with Samuel Gbadebo, Andre shares his journey from breaking out into the sales world as a knife salesman, to spending five years of pharmaceutical sales in Johnson and Johnson to his critical transition to medical device with such companies as Cord Blood Registry and Medtronic. The importance of building relationships and networking is a theme that pervades Andre’s story – something that you do have to think about if you’re making the same shift. Love the show?
