WASHINGTON - April 4, 2013 - PRLog -- Pharmaceutical companies such as Johnson & Johnson, Pfizer, Bayer, and others spend Billions of dollars a year on Research and Development. With every new drug that they develop, they NEED Certified and qualified sales representatives to get their products into the hands of doctors, hospitals, and others.

The average drug developed by a major pharmaceutical company costs at least $4 billion, and it can be as much as $11 billion. With so much going into their R&D, they need someone who is dedicated, knowledgeable, and assertive to represent their product.

Candidates looking to break into the Pharmaceutical Sales industry can do so by acquiring a CNPR certificate by the NAPRx. Upon successful completion of the training each student will receive the Certification Mark of the CNPR®. The CNPR® represents a level of industry achievement and a demonstrated knowledge of pharmacology, medical terminology, pharmaceutical selling guidelines, physician selling techniques and industry standards. Pharmaceutical sales candidates who have this training will differentiate themselves from other individuals looking for open positions. CNPR® graduates should immediately utilize the NAPRx® Career Center to apply for pharmaceutical sales positions.

When pharmaceutical companies look at applicants who have no experience as a pharmaceutical sales rep they look for a combination of sales ability/experience and medical/pharmacology education. It is important to include both types of skills on your resume. The CNPR Certification program was designed to provide aspiring pharmaceutical sales vocational skills that pharmaceutical employers seek. The program provides training in clinical pharmacology, pharmaceutical selling rules, regulations, drug distribution channels, therapeutic drug classes, pharmacokinetics, etc. A pharmaceutical sales rep cannot successfully sell to physicians without having strong pharmacology/medical knowledge.

For more information regarding breaking into pharmaceutical sales, please contact the National Association of Pharmaceutical Representatives (NAPRx) directly at 800-284-1060.
