What Hiring Managers Want Reps to Know

In this episode of the Medical Sales Podcast, Samuel Adeyinka sits down with Jon Alwinson, an Endoscopy Regional Manager, to uncover what hiring managers really look for when interviewing candidates for medical device sales roles. Jon shares the most common mistakes candidates make during interviews, from giving long-winded answers and failing to prepare, to missing opportunities to demonstrate coachability, curiosity, and work ethic. He also explains how experienced reps can successfully transition into procedural sales, what qualities separate top performers from average ones, and why organization, territory planning, and disciplined execution are often the biggest drivers of long-term success. This episode is a must listen for anyone trying to break into medical device sales or current reps who want to sharpen their interview skills, improve their sales performance, and position themselves for career growth.
