YOU ROCK!!! THIS IS FRIGGIN AWESOME! “:):):)
Congratulations on such a huge accomplishment from a man with so many talents!
Thank you for sharing this! I had just finished a job hunt when I got this and although things are going well, I very much wish I had asked these questions. Best of luck to you and the book!
I am impressed with the Top 20 Questions Guide. Your
conviction is evident throughout the manuscript, and at the same time,
you engage the reader with comments like ” some questions I wish I had
asked” and ” I encourage you to structure the 20 questions in your own
words”.
Clearly the Health Care Job Interviewing process is not well
understood, as evidenced by only (3) direct hits on the Amazon web
search.
How many graduating Fellows or Board-Certified Attendings
changing practices would think to ask the high-gain, insightful
questions: 1) How is the workload divided? Cardiac Surgery Associates
is a classic example. I’ve seen new attendings discouraged and burned-out
after 6-12 months, because they did not understand that they would be
covering Call at 3-4 Hospitals on a given weekend.
What is the Plan to introduce a New Member to the community? Atricure
had a few Regional Sales Managers wash out after only a few months,
because they never felt connected to the company, never learned how to
sell themselves INTERNALLY.
Regarding the most important skills an employer is looking for, what a
perfect segway to demonstrating those same skills to the interviewer!
How am I going to get patients? Will I eat only what I kill. I can’t
think of a more important long-term issue for anyone.
Several years back, I was asked to give a presentation on ” Professional
Selling” to the entire Sales Force at Boston Scientific. Needless to
say, I was nervous, yet excited, confident, yet worried. So I prepared
and planned, and I came up with (3) Characteristics that differentiate
the stellar Sales Professionals from the rest:
1. Their attitudes and beliefs about Selling
2. Their interpersonal skills, especially how they ask questions,
listen, and think on their feet
3. How they advance the Sales Situation, whether it’s the next step in
a Job Interviewing Process or getting Cardiac Ablation products stocked
at a Hospital
Your Top 20 Questions Guide reminds me how much we don’t know, as well
as how rewarding it is to share what we do know with others.
Sincerely,
Trevor Autry
This short book is an amazing wealth of information! These 20 questions alone would have helped me immensly when applying for my first job out of residency. What really excites me is that I know this book is just the tip of the iceberg. Furthermore, it has been surprising to me just how often I utilize the priciples in your book . I know this book will not only help many in negotiating their future careers, but also it will help them in nearly all facets of life.
Keep up the wonderful piece of work, I read few blog posts on this internet site and I conceive that your site is really interesting and contains bands of superb information.
