Oscient Pharmaceuticals Work Values

Daily Duties at Oscient Pharmaceuticals:

I had complete ownership and responsibility for the promotion of Lipid altering medications as well as respiratory antibiotics to a target list of about 300 call points covering 2/3 of the state of Louisiana as well as responsibility for prospecting and opening new accounts to promote the usage of these products. This was achieved through accurate analysis of sales, competitor and insurance data, proper budgeting of promotional funds, analysis of long and short term trend data, target prioritization, marketing, resource allocation, effective presentation skills to individuals as well as groups and overall territory and time management. Main call points included cardiologists, endocrinologists, and select primary care physicians. Daily interactions included highly technical presentations to single and multi-physician practices, pharmacies, and their staffs.

What they like about Oscient Pharmaceuticals:

Working in an organization that is technologically advanced, creative, and innovative is critical in your assessment of hiring companies. Less important to you are stability of the organization, the length of time an organization has been in business, and the business' plans for the future. You prefer a fast-moving company that will take risks to achieve its goals and objectives. The length of time the company has been in business is irrelevant. Maintaining status quo is unnecessary. You thrive on change, uncertainty and the upside of potential business risks, especially those associated with innovation. Stability for the long haul is not nearly as important as is working in an atmosphere that is charged with a sense of urgency and constant change.
