National Association of Pharmaceutical Representatives Rude, Scam Washington DC , Internet
I paid the $230 so that I could be NAPRx "certified," whatever that means. I do not even get any interviews within five months. So of course, im looking for a job, and $230 is not exactly a small amount, so I email the company to complain. I tell them I am unhappy with service because their training did absolutely nothing for me. I am a college grad with a degree in health promotion, a minor in biology, and have worked in a vet clinic for 5 years. I am more than a suitable match for a pharma sales position. However, I paid for the training to give me an "edge."
The NAPRx "support team" then proceeded to inform me that I needed to pay an extra $99 to rewrite my resume. I told them I didnt want to spend more money, they then replied this;
"No problem. You are correct. The $250
was spent on training, but I do not believe you have given an adequate amount
of time to find employment, nor have you put an adequate amount of effort in
making a suitable resume.
NAPRx
Jason."
Word to the wise, do not mess with this company. They are scamming $230-250 out of people every chance they get. There are no true job boards on their website, the training means nothing to a hiring manager, and it will not get you interviews.

U.S. CERTIFICATION BOARD - Certification and vocational training programs can only qualify individuals for careers in their prospective industries. Such accredited healthcare certifications as listed above cannot guarantee employment. Certification programs will only match candidates to meet job requirements and qualify them for interviews. Vocational healthcare certification programs at best only employ 70% of their graduates. Graduates from such programs must interview for all positions and possess other personal skills not taught in the educational course, such as: communication skills, professional image, self-motivation, work ethic, etc. If you are considering such a healthcare industry certification program understand that at best you will only qualify for interviews. Certified applicants typically must succeed through a multiple interview process. If you have questions you can contact the U.S. Certification review board.
