ZS by far. We do a of projects to “fix” what IQVIA, clearview and trinity have done.

Could you elaborate? What have they done, and why is ZS better?

Clearly ZS, but I am biased since I have been with ZS all my career. :)

Don't go to IQVIA. A disjointed mess over there. Pretty much a crapshoot to the kind of experience you will have. They acquired a lot of companies and gave little to no thought on integration or culture or process.

If you want to get into healthcare/pharma consulting, ZS is a great place to be. Great growth, all of the top clients, well known in the industry.

Can't speak to the other 2. Never heard of them tbh. But I haven't spent my entire career in healthcare or consulting.

I think ZS / Clear view should be at least comparable to LEK, no clue about others.

For me personally though, job security and WLB is more important

regardless of the stupid prestige circle jerk FB lives for, ZS probably had the widest variety of work and highest pay. maaaaybe ClearView had an edge, idk

My 2 cents on ZS

Pros - Nice people & collaborative atmosphere

Cons - Poor WLB and very SLOOOOOooooow career progression

Hey everyone,
I have a second round interview with a saas company selling education software. This interview will be a 30 minute zoom call with the VP of sales. I am someone from a non- traditional background with 2 years of sales-ish roles but no experience in tech sales and no straight forward sales job.
I did a tech sales bootcamp. Im just worried about what questions he will ask me? Im thinking more technical in terms of sales processes and even sales funnels? Any thoughts?
