1

Schedule your mock

Book a session with a coach who's interviewed and hired at the medical, pharma, or tech sales org you're targeting.

2

Join the session

Meet your coach virtually and run a real interview round — behavioral, screening, role-play, or presentation. Anonymous on camera if you prefer.

3

Walk away with a plan

Get specific, actionable feedback and a written action plan that pinpoints exactly how to win at your target company.

— What to expect

A full interview round, end to end.

Each session runs about an hour and breaks into three parts: ~5 minutes to align on your goals and target role, 35–40 minutes for the mock interview itself, and 15–20 minutes of detailed feedback, advice, and Q&A.

After the session, you'll receive written feedback from your coach plus a private recording of the full session — yours to rewatch and reference.

— Real interview questions

The top questions you'll likely be asked.

Your coach pulls from the real interview rounds run at your target company — not generic sales scenarios. Behavioral, screening, role-play, or presentation rounds, all calibrated to your level and target role.

Coaches have personally conducted hundreds of interviews at top medical and tech companies.

Behavioral · Medtronic SD
"Tell me about a time you persuaded a skeptical clinician to try a new device or technique."
+
How top reps structure this answer
SSituation: Set the stakes in one sentence — who, where, what was at risk.
TTask: Name the clinician's specific objection (workflow, evidence, comfort).
AAction: Walk through the discovery questions you asked and the proof points you brought.
RResult: Quantify — adoption %, case volume, follow-up referrals.
RReflection: What you'd repeat with the next skeptical clinician.
"You're meeting an OR manager who's loyal to a competitor. Open the conversation."
+
CIRCL Selling — Connect, the first of 4 phases
1Acknowledge the relationship. Don't pretend the competitor isn't there — name it.
2Earn the next 5 minutes. Reference a specific OR pain point you've solved elsewhere (turnover time, tray standardization, rep coverage).
3Ask a question that makes them think. Curiosity beats pitching every time at the Connect phase.
4Set a specific next step. A 15-minute case observation, not a generic follow-up.
Presentation · J&J Vision
"Walk me through how you'd launch this product to a new territory in 90 days."
+
30 / 60 / 90 territory plan
30Learn: Top 20 accounts mapped, KOLs identified, ride-alongs with senior reps, certification on the product.
60Land: First 5 in-services scheduled, 2 trial cases booked, baseline territory metrics established.
90Lift: 3 expansion conversations open, first reorder secured, quarterly business review with manager.
+Close with a number. Tie the plan to a specific revenue or unit target — that's what hiring managers remember.
Screening · Databricks BDR
"Why sales? Why tech sales? Why Databricks — and why now?"
+
The "Why stack" — answer in this order
WWhy sales: A specific moment that taught you you'd rather create demand than fulfill it. Avoid the cliché "I love people."
WWhy tech sales: The technical domain you're drawn to and why software's velocity fits how you want to work.
WWhy Databricks: One product detail (lakehouse, MLflow) and one cultural detail (their engineering-led sales motion) — proves you read past the homepage.
WWhy now: Tie to where the company is in its arc and where you are in yours. The "now" is what most candidates skip.
— A clear plan of action

Know exactly what to fix.

Vague feedback won't move you forward. Your coach delivers specific, prioritized notes on what to keep doing, what to tighten, and what to rebuild — alongside a written action plan tied to your target company's expectations.

You'll leave knowing the exact strengths to lean into, the gaps to close, and the next steps to take before your real interview.

Strength to lean into: your discovery questions surfaced the real decision criteria fast.
Priority fix: quantify "Result" lines in 3 of your 5 STARR stories.
Gap to close: rehearse 2 objection-handling reps before Stryker round 2.
Next session: rerun the role-play with new objection set — book within 7 days.

How much do mock interviews cost?+
General Mock Interviews are $170 each (down from $189). Target Company Mock Interviews are $289 each. We offer package discounts at checkout for 3 or 6 mocks. Premium members receive a $30 credit toward their first 1:1 mock.
What does a session look like?+
Sessions run about an hour and are conducted virtually. The first ~5 minutes are spent aligning on your goals and target role. The mock itself runs 35–40 minutes — the same length as a real interview round. The remaining 15–20 minutes are dedicated to detailed feedback, an action plan, and Q&A. After the session, you'll receive written feedback and a private recording.
Can I choose my coach?+
For General Mocks, we match you with a coach based on your target industry and role level — every coach has direct interviewing experience at top medical, pharma, or tech sales orgs. For Target Company Mocks, you're matched with a coach who has interviewed candidates specifically at the company you're preparing for.
What if my target company isn't on your coach list?+
Reach out before booking and we'll let you know. Our coach roster covers most major medical device, pharma, and tech sales orgs — and we're constantly adding more. If we don't have direct coverage, a General Mock with a coach from an adjacent org will still give you sharp, transferable feedback.
Can I do multiple mock interviews?+
Yes — and most candidates do. Many grads run 2–4 mocks across the prep cycle: a general behavioral mock to set baseline, then a target company mock right before each real round. Premium members get unlimited 1:1 coaching included in their plan.
What types of interview rounds can I practice?+
All of them. Behavioral, screening, sales role-play, presentation/business plan rounds, and final-round panels. When you book, you'll select the round type and your coach will run it true to the format used at your target company.
