You're our "Member of the Moment"

Hello Mike,
My name is Benjamin Oliver and I guess you could call me an aspiring dental sales rep. I have applied to several open positions within your company, namely Nashville Tennessee and Knoxville TN. I would really appreciate it if you could take a look at my cover letter and resume (in the resume section of this site, page 3) and tell me if, in your experience at Schein, I am a good candidate for the position . As far as the Knoxville position is concerned, I just graduated from the University of Tennessee Knoxville and have many dental contacts in the area.

Thanks so much,
Ben Oliver

Thanks so much. i really appreciate it.
I have heard that the conventions tend to be a bit intense for a lack of a better word, haha. That's good to know what type of company Schein is. It seems like a great company to start out my career.

Dear Mike, Congrats on "member of the moment". I am a DDS pursuing a sales rep/consultant position in the NY Tri-state area. Do you have any contact names? I appreciate your time and expertise. Best regards, Jeff Cloidt

Dear Mike,
Thank you for reaching out to me. This site seems to be supportive and informative for people entering this field.
Thank you in advance for mentioning my name to Schein. I owe you. Enjoy the meeting! Best regards, Jeff

Hey Mike,
So I'm waiting on Innovative solutions group to tell me if I have a second interview at Schein. I had a rather long interview,1.5 hrs, with Innovative Solutions for a expansion territory in Knoxville Tennessee this past thursday. It went pretty well, I think he was just concerned with the fact that I have no sales experience. He was, however, completely impressed with my knowledge of Henry Schein and the dental sales community in general. I owe all of this knowledge to this website! Anyway, I was reading your blog post about how much it cost for you to go to trade shows because you aren't reimbursed. That got me thinking about what my interviewer told me about my expected compensation. Other than base salary he said there would be a bonus program as well as a 5000 dollar car allowance. At Schein, does that $5000 include your gas, or do you have to pay that out of pocket?

Thanks so much,
Ben

Hi Mike, being a Schein representative, what's your feeling on the Gendex line of equipment and the company as a whole? Do you think the Gendex sales position to be full of promise or otherwise?
Thanks in advance!
