I.M. | Psychiatry MSL

Dr. Mike and Dr. Simon are both superstars! I couldn’t have asked for better industry consultants to help me break into my first MSL role in pharma. During my free 30-minute consultation, I asked Dr. Mike about the mentorship philosophy of Breakthrough MSL, and he promised to be fully committed to me and my journey from start to finish. While I was shopping around for consultants, no other coach or program made me this promise and based on all the valuable and actionable insight Dr. Mike provided during my FREE consultation, I knew with absolute certainty he could back it up. And boy, did Drs. Mike and Simon go above and beyond to deliver… and then some!

As active Senior MSLs and current leaders in Medical Affairs, Dr. Mike and Dr. Simon significantly enhanced and deepened my knowledge of the MSL role, the Medical Affairs organization, and industry as a whole by leveraging their firsthand, insider wisdom in a way that was more time- and cost-efficient than enrolling in a program with a set curriculum. Their collective pulse on the MSL role and biopharmaceutical industry and their power to educate was what truly set them apart and gave a candidate like myself with no prior MSL experience seeking to break through to their first role a giant leg up in the interview process.

As a paid client, they offered me immersive mentorship, which meant I could directly reach out with questions or concerns 24/7 and receive immediate, effective guidance that helped me stay confident, focused, and prepared at every step of the application process— from networking to delivering my final interview presentation. Throughout the interview process, they mentored me through a long list of challenging decisions I was faced with and could have never anticipated. They also coached me on the most effective strategies and tactics to handle important tasks like crafting personalized, post-interview “thank you” emails to my interviewers as well as more complicated tasks like preparing for interviews, drafting impressive, tailored questions for my interviewers, or designing a strong, impactful final presentation from scratch.

Consultations with Dr. Mike and Dr. Simon gave me a significant advantage at every stage of my MSL interview process and was the key difference maker for landing my first MSL offer/position. All consultations were personalized to my needs and focused on how I could grow, upskill, improve, and succeed in my goal of landing my first MSL offer. Moreover, they were very patient, empathetic, and committed to answering countless questions, especially when I was anxious, uncertain, and panicking. In all honesty, I owe 100% of my success to the unwavering support, invaluable mentorship, and profound guidance of these two professionals. Thanks to their sound mentorship and seasoned expertise, I secured my first MSL role with a clear understanding of how to thrive in the position. If you want to level up and give yourself the best chance at impressing the Hiring Manager and Interview Committee, Dr. Mike and Dr. Simon are the best! Period.
