Meet the People Helpers
Meet Jason Ganahl
Throughout my career there has always been one correleation in the jobs I took on that I found to be the most rewarding. That correlation was helping people. Frequently I would get calls from friends, or friends of friends, asking “Can you help me get into medical or pharmaceutical sales?” I particularly enjoyed these calls because I then had an opportunity to coach someone through the hiring process. My favorite moments were the calls from the candidates at the end of each step in the hiring process, culminating with that final call where they proudly said “they made me an offer!!!” I take great pleasure in creating those moments with others. Allow me to share the thrill of finding your dream job with you!
With 9 years of sales and marketing management experience in the medical industry, I have the knowledge and connections to get the job done. Launching my career as a Sales Representative, I quickly rose to various sales and marketing management positions in a 42 billion dollar organization. As a graduate of the University of Missouri-GO TIGERS-I earned both an MBA and an undergraduate degree in Biology.
When I am not not finding the perfect candidate for my clients, I enjoy spending my time with my friends and girlfriend, traveling, lifting weights, jogging, playing basketball, playing poker, dining out, snowboarding and looking for the next perfect candidate for my clients.
