Doing this job remotely

This is a field role: the specialist works from home but spends most days driving to physician offices in an assigned territory and must live in or near it. Some customer contact has moved to virtual calls, though in-person visits remain central. Access to hospitals may require vendor credentialing.

Where it comes from and where it leads

Many enter from business-to-business sales, entry-level pharmaceutical rep roles, or clinical jobs such as nursing. The path leads to specialty and hospital sales, institutional or key account management, district sales management, or marketing and training roles.
