IT WAS AN HONOR TO WORK IN GSK - BRASOV. I MET THERE INTELLIGENT PEOPLE AND I HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO LEARN MANY USEFUL THINGS AND TO DISCOVER A MULTINATIONAL WORKPLACE.

A typical day would consist of following the plan that you had put together at the beginning of the week so each days was quite different, but the basic job was to influence and sell the benefits the medicine to the healthcare professional that day and help them prescribe to the appropriate patient.
I learnt many influencing skills and sales skills – more... as well as Account managing and business planning. Most of the time my work with co workers was a sharing of best practice as I was solely in charge of my own territory.
The hardest part of the job was initially learning the disease area and mode of action of the medicine to such a high level but enjoyed and became a high achiever in this by going the extra mile.
The most enjoyable part of the job was selling to the customer and helping to make a change in his or her prescribing so that the patient were receiving the best medicine for their illness. – less
