As a pharmaceutical headhunter/recruiter I received hundreds of resumes per week.  Occasionally I would receive resumes in a PDF format.  Most recruiters and employers now use resume extraction tools that automatically pulls out all the text and places into what is called an applicant tracking system so they can manage the hiring process.  When you send your resume in a PDF format the resume cannot be scanned and imported.

The best format for all pharmaceutical sales resume is Microsoft Word.

Consider using our medblaster service to send your resume to over 100 recruiters at one time.

About Us

After working in the pharmaceutical industry as a recruiter for 10 years we felt there should be an alternative to posting your resume on job boards and forcing headhunters and employers to try and find you among millions of other resumes. Most recruiters and employers are very busy and cannot spend all day looking for your resume online so why not send it right to them. Of course you can send it for free but why not spend $11.99 (about 1 cent per recruiter) to send it to over 100 recruiters in one shot and go about your day.
