Indeed.com pushes out Careerbuilder and Monster for “most relevant clinical sales search” in the month of July

Is an online career opportunity search going to get you the pharmaceutical sales job you want?

News of the day:  Indeed.com posted 9.1M searches for pharmaceutical sales in July, which eclipsed Monster (4.1M) and Careerbuilder (4.4M).

This makes sense. It is an aggregator of jobs. Meaning, it gathers position information from everywhere and posts it all together. Handy, huh? Maybe–maybe not…

Here’s one key point for you to remember: As many jobs as these sites have posted, they don’t have anything. In a tough market like we’re in now, a jobseeker won’t be successful without looking for the jobs that aren’t on those sites but that are on individual recruiter sites (like ours – PHC Consulting) or small company career pages.  Also, I would encourage position seekers to develop new, bigger networks and to work them methodically.  Relying on online career opportunity searching just isn’t going to get you where you want to go.  (Although that’s not the only job-hunting mistake.)

If you need one-on-one career coaching (like how to get an interview without EVER applying online to a position site or career page), or if you need help with any other aspect of getting your clinical sales career opportunity, go here .  (See how it’s helped others by clicking here.)
