According to a new report from niche job board MedReps, medical sales professionals are a “fickle bunch.”

Despite high levels of job satisfaction among these professionals (72 percent of medical sales reps surveyed by MedReps said they were “satisfied or very satisfied” with their jobs), 47 percent of them say they may leave their jobs for other opportunities in 2016.

That’s bad news for any organization that employs medical sales professionals. How can you retain top talent when it seems like even job satisfaction is not enough to get them to stick around?
