Aspiring MSL Insight: What Types of MSL Presentations are Acceptable in a Final Interview? 🧑⚕️🎤
If you’re an Aspiring MSL, you likely realize how important the MSL presentation is during the final interview. But you may be wondering, “What type of presentation should I do? 🤔"
So, for this Aspiring MSL Insight, Michael Pietrack describes the top three types of MSL presentations that are acceptable in a final interview.
1️⃣ The most common type of presentation used in MSL interviews is the clinical data presentation. 📊 This is a good style to showcase your ability to understand and communicate scientific data effectively. If this is the route you take, choose a recent, relevant study and provide a comprehensive overview, including the study design, methodology, results, and implications. So, the most common type is a clinical data presentation.
2️⃣ The second most common presentation type is a therapy overview presentation. 💊 This type of presentation will showcase your knowledge of the therapeutic area and the company’s products, because you’ll be providing an in-depth overview of a particular drug’s mechanism of action or how that drug fits into the current treatment landscape. So, the second type is a therapy overview.
3️⃣ The third most common type of presentation given at a final interview for an MSL job is a journal club style presentation. 📚 In the pharmaceutical industry, a journal club is a formal meeting where individuals (typically healthcare professionals, researchers, or members of a pharmaceutical company) gather to critically evaluate and discuss recent articles from scientific journals. If you go this route, choose a recent and relevant article from a highly-respected journal that addresses a significant question or an advancement in the field.
