There is no question that a vacancy — whether temporary or permanent — exposes a vulnerability to your firm given the highly competitive nature of the biopharmaceutical industry.

Trying to cover for a vacancy by shuffling existing resources can create potential coverage issues elsewhere.

With Vanguard's vacancy-management service, we can proactively and cost-effectively provide the coverage you need, when and where you need it.

Here are the advantages of employing Vanguard's vacancy management service:

• Experience no gaps in sales coverage!
• A national strategy means that upcoming vacancies are managed proactively and can be filled quickly with advance notice.
• Cost-effective — Vanguard uniquely has no up-front recruiting fee to source the right candidate for you and monthly service fees are modest.
• Vanguard takes care of the details of on-boarding the representative, HR orientation, integration with sales operations, etc.
• The representative can be "absorbed" into your salesforce at any time upon request — the popular "try before you buy" model.
