Seems pretty random for a first post. Strangely enough the pharmaceutical company I work for just laid most of the sales team off !0

I suspect another new poster will be along in a minute to guide us to a website he just found with vacancies in pharmaceutical sales....Retired in 2015.

Do you have much experience, is your CV well written. What agencies are you using???"We act as though comfort and luxury are the chief requirements of life, when all that we need to make us happy is something to be enthusiastic about” – Albert Einstein0 -

At the moment it is the credit crunch. Just ignore LinasPilibaitisisbatman - some people just have to compensate for their inadequacies.
Also you have to have an awful lot of experience to get into this industry. Your CV also has to look quite safe on the outside - no shady salespeople companies. Though once you're in the game, it's a whole different playing field!0
