As of Sep 22, 2026, 21 matching postings state a minimum of zero to two years, while 7 do not state a minimum. These are stated experience requirements, not a guarantee of entry-level eligibility. A posting can require industry experience, a credential or a particular background separately; read the employer's qualifications before applying.
The median advertised annual base is $166,250, calculated from 120 qualifying postings as of Sep 22, 2026. This uses each published range's midpoint and excludes hourly rates, on-target earnings and non-promotional field-support roles. It measures advertised base pay, not take-home pay or first-year total compensation. 79% publish a numeric pay range of any kind.
The largest matching employer counts as of Sep 22, 2026 are Abbott (11), Gilead Sciences (10), Becton Dickinson (8). These are currently advertised postings on MedSales Radar, not a complete census of hiring or proof of expansion. Counts can change after an employer refreshes its careers site; use the linked listings to check current requirements and locations.
7 of 174 matching postings carry a remote or home-based location flag as of Sep 22, 2026; 126 state a travel percentage. Home-based medical sales work can still involve customer visits and a defined territory. A missing remote flag does not establish an office requirement, and an unstated travel percentage does not mean no travel. Confirm territory and travel expectations with the employer.

Selling to the executive suite of a hospital or integrated delivery network rather than to a clinician — corporate accounts, strategic accounts and GPO contracting. What is being sold is an agreement, usually covering many products at once and many facilities at once. The counterpart is a vice president of supply chain or a chief financial officer, and the argument is total cost, standardization and risk rather than clinical preference. Nearly everyone doing this job carried a territory first. These titles — corporate accounts, strategic accounts, area vice president — are the top of the device sales ladder rather than a side door onto it. 174 open roles right now. Every listing here either names this setting in the posting itself or names a product line that is only sold in one place — never a guess from the employer's industry.
