Summary
I've developed skills in scientific research, critical thinking, data analysis, communication, and teamwork, which can be applied in various roles within the medical and public health fields. With my experience working in sales for four years, I've also developed a strong set of customer service and relationship management skills, as well as the ability to develop and execute sales strategies, negotiate with clients, and develop expertise in the products or services I sell. Given my skill set, I believe there are several medical and public health jobs that may be suitable for me. For instance, I could work as a medical assistant, helping to support medical professionals in a clinical setting. Alternatively, I could work as a research assistant or laboratory technician, helping to carry out scientific research related to medicine, public health, or biotechnology. Finally, my sales experience could be leveraged in a role as a pharmaceutical sales representative or in other roles that require business development, customer relationship management, or sales strategy development.
