Employer
With the introduction of territory specific recruiting, we can assure not wasting your valuable time as our final candidates are screened face-to-face not via phone. We see much more than a resume. We evaluate the ability to articulate, body language and people skills necessary to succeed. With this model, it allows us confidence to work as a full contingency recruiter. We only get paid if you hire. In other words, we put our money where our mouth is.
Additionally, we invite you to look through our fee structure. We have such a large share of the market that we are able to work at an 80% or more discount off traditional recruiting. We also have two additional features with our recruitment that is unfound in the medical sales recruitment industry. First, we have a one-year guarantee on our placements. That is correct, most of our competitors have a 30-90 day policy. How often do you terminate someone in the first 90 days or less? We have found that the one-year mark traditionally is the make it or break it period. Again, we believe in finding the top talent and stand behind it. Next, we also are the only recruiter that we know of that has a lifetime policy against recruiting those that we have placed. Our policy is strict that we will not work with a former employed candidate.

So Now What?
You’ve been presented with several candidates, and may have identified your next hire. Here are the next steps…
Distributor / Hiring Manager Process:
You’ve identified your next rep and are eager to bring them “on board”
- Medical Sales College Graduate – If you select an MSC graduate to join your team, there is NO COST to you
- Experienced or Competitive Rep – If your candidate is an experienced medical device rep, the cost of our recruitment services is $2,000.
In some rare circumstances, we may present a strong candidate that is not as experienced. On other occasions, we have had hiring managers who have identified a great, but inexperienced, rep through some other avenue. In both cases, these candidates are new to the industry and would likely benefit from additional training before going into the field. The process in this case would be:
- Provide a “Letter of Intent to Hire” to the candidate
- The Medical Sales College will invite your candidate to the next appropriate class
- Based upon successful completion of the program, your new hire will be ready to step into their new territory in a short time
- NO COST associated with EliteMed’s recruitment services
Our recruitment services are offered strictly on a contingent basis. If we were not successful in helping you to identify a candidate you’re interested in bringing on to your team:
- We can fine-tune and repeat the process
- We can end the process
- NO COST associated with recruitment services
